Comment(by ln5):

 FWIW, 074bf72 looks correct to me given that there are no "listener
 connections" which are not of the type CONN_TYPE_CONTROL_LISTENER.

 Since retry_listener_ports() doesn't really _close_ any ports, the new
 formal parameter 'close_all_noncontrol' seems slightly misnamed.  We
 could make it 'uint8_t ports_filter' but that would make the function
 harder to understand from its prototype alone.

 At least it needs documentation.  Maybe adding something like this?

   If <b>close_all_noncontrol</b> is 1, don't consider any ports in
   <b>ports</b> which are not control listener ports.
