Note that sctp will migrate such incoming chunks from sk to newsk in sctp_rcv() if they arrived after the mass-migration performed at sctp_sock_migrate(). That said, did you explore changing inet_accept() so that sk1->sk_prot->accept() would return sk2 still/already locked? That would be enough to block [2] from happening as then it would be queued on newsk backlog this time and avoid nearly duplicating inet_accept(). (too bad for this chunk, hit 2 backlogs..) AFAICT TCP code would be fine with such change. Didn't check other protocols.
