That means the change will land in 4.14 at the earliest, right? (Just out of curiosity.)
By the way, refpolicy only grants "socket" permissions to a handful of domains, all of which also have the corresponding "unix_dgram_socket" permissions. The fedora policy does the same (according to Stephen); this only leaves custom policies to be potentially affected by this change.
Given that the SOCK_RAW->SOCK_DGRAM translation is obscure enough not to be documented anywhere outside the kernel sources, I doubt there are many users of it, anyway.
