File socket-activation-don-t-unlink-socket-we-didn-t-create of Package rpcbind

From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>
Subject: socket-activation: don't unlink socket we didn't create
References: bnc#757667

On an unpatched system, try this:
 rpcinfo <works>
 rcrpcbind restart
 rpcinfo <fails>

This is due to rpcbind unlinking the socket file when it exits. It
 doesn't own the socket file when socket activation is used - systemd
 does. Systemd still has an open reference to it and when rpcbind is
 restarted, it passes the open reference back to it and rpcbind is
 perfectly happy to accept it. Unfortunately, everything that needs to
 talk to rpcbind no longer can because the socket file each of those
 users needs to open is no longer on the file system.

This patch adds a new global that's used to avoid unlinking the
 rpcbind.sock socket file during shutdown.
