verify the underlying transport exists before creating a connection in kernel-rds CVE-2015-6937 remote

The __rds_conn_create function in net/rds/connection.c in the Linux kernel through 4.2.3 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by using a socket that was not properly bound.

Upstream-commit and 3.2-backport are the same, so implementing in kernel-3.4 for jolla1 should be no problem...
