Hello,

The iptables patch requires for set up rules with tproxy match and 
target, but for frebind no. Whithout tproxy the IP_FREEBIND works as 
before, in tproxy it is only using for indicating sockets that accepts 
diverted connections/packets (via TPROXY target).

The IP_FREEBIND sockopt is not related to the EINPROGRESS result, which 
indicates that it is a non-blocking socket and a poll for write event is 
necassery.
