Based on the steps you list, I am wondering if it is finished in the
step #1, the call of connect() in step #3 would return -EISCONN. Should
we check 0 and -EISCONN in  step #3?

To fix this issue, I think we should be careful about adding and
handling sock state, maybe we could push it to net-next and take
advantage of sock state. And I will test this patch later in our test
cases.
