You are right, I missed it.
Binding the socket is the main reason for the patch, to prevent exposing
the geneve port on all interfaces.
I think it should be searched in geneve{6}_lookup and in geneve_find_sock:

static struct geneve_sock *geneve_find_sock(struct geneve_net *gn,
					    sa_family_t family,
					    union geneve_addr *saddr)
 {
 	struct geneve_sock *gs;

 	list_for_each_entry(gs, &gn->sock_list, list) {
		struct inet_sock *inet = inet_sk(gs->sock->sk);

		if (inet->inet_sport == dst_port && geneve_get_sk_family(gs) == family) {
			if (family == AF_INET && inet->inet_rcv_saddr == saddr->sin.sin_addr.s_addr)
				return gs;
        ...

This is also true for VXLAN
What do you think?
Thanks
