The client was in the middle of trying to send a frame when the
server->ssocket pointer got zeroed out. In most places, that we access
that pointer, the srv_mutex is held. There's only one spot that I see
that the server->ssocket pointer gets set and the srv_mutex isn't held.
This patch corrects that.
