af_unix: Avoid socket->sk NULL OOPS in stream connect security hooks.
[ Upstream commit 3610cda53f247e176bcbb7a7cca64bc53b12acdb ]
unix_release() can asynchornously set socket->sk to NULL, and
it does so without holding the unix_state_lock() on "other"
during stream connects.
However, the reverse mapping, sk->sk_socket, is only transitioned
to NULL under the unix_state_lock().
Therefore make the security hooks follow the reverse mapping instead
of the forward mapping.
