    When creation of TIPC internal server socket fails,
    we get an oops with the following dump:

    We have the following call chain:
    
    tipc_core_start()
        ret = tipc_subscr_start()
            ret = tipc_server_start(){
                      server->enabled = 1;
                      ret = tipc_open_listening_sock()
                  }
    
    I.e., the server->enabled flag is unconditionally set to 1, whatever
    the return value of tipc_open_listening_sock().
    
    This causes a crash when tipc_core_start() tries to clean up
    resources after a failed initialization:
    
        if (ret == failed)
            tipc_subscr_stop()
                tipc_server_stop(){
                    if (server->enabled)
                        tipc_close_conn(){
                            NULL reference of con->sock-sk
                            OOPS!
                    }
                }
    
    To avoid this, tipc_server_start() should only set server->enabled
    to 1 in case of a succesful socket creation. In case of failure, it
    should release all allocated resources before returning.
    
    Problem introduced in commit c5fa7b3c
    ("tipc: introduce new TIPC server infrastructure") in v3.11-rc1.
    Note that it won't be seen often; it takes a module load under memory
    constrained conditions in order to trigger the failure condition.
