This is a benchmarking issue that happens only when you try
to simulate too many clients with a single client machine, right?
Did you try to tell 2.2.14 to use a larger port range, e.g.
# echo 1024 65535 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
1024 65535
on your unpatched runs?
