When sockets created SO_REUSEPORT move to TW state they are placed
back on the the tb->owners. fastreuse port is no longer set so we have
to walk potential long list of sockets in tb->owners to open a new
listener socket. I imagine this is happens when we try to open a new
listener SO_REUSEPORT after the system has been running a while and so
we hit the long tb->owners list.
