It does by my read. In unix_stream_connect we have,

	sock_hold(sk);
	unix_peer(newsk)	= sk;
	newsk->sk_state		= TCP_ESTABLISHED;

where it assigns the peer sock. unix_dgram_connect() also calls
sock_hold() but through the path that does the socket lookup, such as
unix_find_other().

The problem I see is before the socket does the kfree on the
sock we need to be sure the backlog is canceled and the skb list
ingress_skb is purged. If we don't ensure this then the redirect
will 

My model is this,

         s1            c1
refcnt    1             1
connect   2             2
psock     3             3
send(s1) ...
close(s1) 2             1 <- close drops psock count also
close(c1) 0             0

The important bit here is the psock has a refcnt on the
underlying sock (psock->sk) and wont dec that until after
cancel_delayed_work_sync() completes. This ensures the
backlog wont try to sendmsg() on that sock after we free
it. We also check for SOCK_DEAD and abort to avoid sending
over a socket that has been marked DEAD.

So... After close(s1) the only thing keeping that sock
around is c1. Then we close(c1) that call path is

 unix_release
   close() 
   unix_release_sock()
     skpair = unix_peer(sk);
     ...
     sock_put(skpair);  <- trouble here

The release will call sock_put() on the pair socket and
dec it to 0 where it gets free'd through sk_free(). But
now the trouble is we haven't waited for cancel_delayed_work_sync()
on the c1 socket yet so backlog can still run. When it does
run it may try to send a pkg over socket s1. OK right up until
the sendmsg(s1, ...) does a peer lookup and derefs the peer
socket. The peer socket was free'd earlier so use after free. 

The question I had originally was this is odd, we are allowing
a sendmsg(s1) over a socket while its in unix_release(). We
used to take the sock lock from the backlog that was dropped
in the name of performance, but it creates these races.

Other fixes I considered. First adding sock lock back to
backlog. But that punishes the UDP and TCP cases that don't
have this problem. Set the SOCK_DEAD flag earlier or check
later but this just makes the race smaller doesn't really
eliminate it.

So this patch is what I came up with.
