    netfilter: xt_owner: Fix for unsafe access of sk->sk_socket
    
    [ Upstream commit 7ae836a3d630e146b732fe8ef7d86b243748751f ]
    
    A concurrently running sock_orphan() may NULL the sk_socket pointer in
    between check and deref. Follow other users (like nft_meta.c for
    instance) and acquire sk_callback_lock before dereferencing sk_socket.
