I'd ask the kernel Team to integrate the following changes into our 4.13 kernel 
release to avoid any sort of update-regressions related to SO_REUSEPORT [1]
- Reproducer [2] without libvirt, how to use in [3]
- Fixes are submitted as [3] - [6]
- If I tracked them correctly they went upstream without [5]+[6] but with [7] 
instead
- Overall the upstream change that I'd ask to pull in as a fix into any 4.13 
release is in the merge [8] as part of 4.14-rc2

Title:
  libvirt - vnc port selection regression with newer kernels

Status in libvirt package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Bug appears in linux-image-4.11.x kernels on 16.04.3.
  4.8.x and 4.10.x are okay.

  When libvirtd is restarted on Kernel 4.11.0-x-generic or above , it
  loses all information regarding existing port bindings and is unable
  to correctly re-identify vnc ports that currently in use. libvirt
  attempts to bind to an existing port and fails.

  instance-000a6096.log:2017-10-09T01:42:16.017220Z 
  qemu-system-x86_64: -vnc 0.0.0.0:0: Failed to start VNC server: Failed to 
listen on socket: Address already in use

  Fairly certain this is the same bug reported, and patched in
  kernel-4.13.4-200.fc26 for Fedora
