OK. Then, is the correct fix

  inode_lock(inode);
  if (SOCKET_I(inode)->sk) {
    // Can access SOCKET_I(sock)->sk->*
  } else {
    // Already close()d. Don't touch.
  }
  inode_unlock(inode);

thanks to

  commit 6d8c50dcb029872b ("socket: close race condition between sock_close() and sockfs_setattr()")
  commit ff7b11aa481f682e ("net: socket: set sock->sk to NULL after calling proto_ops::release()")

changes?
