inet_open_active() is documented to report a fd of -1 when an error occurs. All three of its callers rely on this, by checking only the fd to determine whether there was an error. This means that if the call to set_nonblocking() or set_dscp() or connect() failed, then the callers would try to use a fd that had already been closed, wreaking havoc.
This fixes a bug introduced in commit a4efa3fc5d (socket-util: Close socket on failed dscp modification.) Bug #13750.
