This changelog is absolutely not accurate.

sk is a listener here.
(because sk was set to req->rsk_listener;)

Please do not add confusion by mixing different things.

I prefer not relying on the old value of 'refcounted', since we
switched sk value.

Note that we call reqsk_put(req); regardless of 'refcounted'

I would rather not change this code and make future backports more complicated.

Thanks.
