agree.

PF_RDS sockets *MUST* alwasy be bound. See
Documentation/networking/rds.txt:
" Sockets must be bound before you can send or receive data.
This is needed because binding also selects a transport and
attaches it to the socket. Once bound, the transport assignment
does not change."
Also, rds_sendmsg checks this (from net-next, your version
has the equivalent ipv6_addr_any etc check):
if (daddr == 0 || rs->rs_bound_addr == 0) {
release_sock(sk);
ret = -ENOTCONN; /* XXX not a great errno */
goto out;
}
