I suppose that you must send SIGIO when data actually arives from socket.
In accordance of LDD2 write() method should look something like this:
ssize_t _write(...)
{
	/* Some data defenitions */

	if (dev->async_queue)
		kill_fasync(&dev->async_queue, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
	if (down_interruptible(&dev->sem))
		return -ERESTARTSYS;

	/* Work with data transaction itself */
}
