Commit 8ff978b8b222 ("ipv4/raw: support binding to nonlocal addresses") introduced a helper function to fold duplicated validity checks of bind addresses into inet_addr_valid_or_nonlocal(). However, this caused an unintended regression in ping_check_bind_addr(), which previously would reject binding to multicast and broadcast addresses, but now these are both incorrectly allowed as reported in [1].

I believe this [ https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=b4... ] needs to end up in 5.17+ LTS (though I guess 5.17 is eol, so probably just 5.18)
5.17 is end-of-life, sorry.
And this needs to hit Linus's tree first.
thanks,
