This bug can be triggered via simple

sk = socket(AF_PHONET)
ioctl(sk, SIOCPNENABLEPIPE, 0)
connect(sk);


ioctl() sets sk->sk_state to TCP_SYN_SENT in pep_sock_enable() and then 
there is following check in pn_socket_bind():

	if (sk->sk_state != TCP_CLOSE || pn_port(pn->sobject)) {
		err = -EINVAL; /* attempt to rebind */
		goto out;
	}

Looks like "sk->sk_state != TCP_CLOSE" check is redundant and 
pn_port(pn->sobject) is unique flag, that socket is already binded.
