Looking at the original patch looks like the implementation is only
done for TCP and UDP:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=c617f398edd4db2b8567a28e899a88f8f574798d
UNIX domain sockets use the file system as the address name space, so
SO_REUSEPORT would not be applicable.
