From: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 5731a879d03bdaa00265f8ebc32dfd0e65d25276 ] Add psock NULL check to handle a racing sock event that can get the sk_callback_lock before this case but after xchg happens causing the refcnt to hit zero and sock user data (psock) to be null and queued for garbage collection. Also add a comment in the code because this is a bit subtle and not obvious in my opinion.
