This was due to the test expecting a negative value to return an error
on the setsockopt() call, rather than just applying the minimum. I've
now corrected the test in the qa-r-t tree in https://git.launchpad.net
/qa-regression-
testing/commit/?id=2ffdf26fe003ac99cf7a457a689ebe5d6afbbafe and
confirmed that the kernel in yakkety-proposed passes the test while the
current kernel in yakkety-updates still fails it.

Thanks.
