From: Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@auristor.com>

The find connection logic of Transarc's Rx was modified in the mid-1990s
to support multi-homed servers which might send a response packet from
an address other than the destination address in the received packet.
The rules for accepting a packet by an Rx initiator (RX_CLIENT_CONNECTION)
were altered to permit acceptance of a packet from any address provided
that the port number was unchanged and all of the connection identifiers
matched (Epoch, CID, SecurityClass, ...).

This change applies the same rules to the Linux implementation which makes
it consistent with IBM AFS 3.6, Arla, OpenAFS and AuriStorFS.
