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.
