When a broadcast AppleTalk packet is received, prefer queuing it on the socket whose address matches the address of the interface that received the packet (and is listening on the correct port). Userspace applications that handle such packets will usually send a response on the same socket that received the packet; this fix allows the response to be sent on the correct interface. If a socket matching the interface's address is not found, an arbitrary socket listening on the correct port will be used, if any. This matches the implementation's previous behavior. Fixes atalkd's responses to network information requests when multiple network interfaces are configured to use AppleTalk.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
