If the socket has been de-assigned or assigned to another transport,
we must discard any packets received because they are not expected
and would cause issues when we access vsk->transport.

A possible scenario is described by Hyunwoo Kim in the attached link,
where after a first connect() interrupted by a signal, and a second
connect() failed, we can find `vsk->transport` at NULL, leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.

FWIW, I've tried simplifying Hyunwoo's repro to toy with some tests. Ended
up with

```
from threading import *
from socket import *
from signal import *

def listener(tid):
	while True:
		s = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_SEQPACKET)
		s.bind((1, 1234))
		s.listen()
		pthread_kill(tid, SIGUSR1)

signal(SIGUSR1, lambda *args: None)
Thread(target=listener, args=[get_ident()]).start()

while True:
	c = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_SEQPACKET)
	c.connect_ex((1, 1234))
	c.connect_ex((42, 1234))
```

which gives me splats with or without this patch.

That said, when I apply this patch, but drop the `sk->sk_state !=
TCP_LISTEN &&`: no more splats.

We can't drop `sk->sk_state != TCP_LISTEN &&` because listener socket doesn't have any transport (vsk->transport == NULL), so every connection request will receive an error, so maybe this is the reason of no splats.

I'm cooking some more patches to fix Hyunwoo's scenario handling better the close work when the virtio destructor is called.

I'll run your reproduces to test it, thanks for that!
