Should this be a check on the socket family (sock->ops->family)
instead of the address family?

It is valid to pass an address with AF_UNSPEC to a PF_INET(6) socket.
And there are legitimate reasons to want to deny this. Such as passing
a connection to a unprivileged process and disallow it from disconnect
and opening a different new connection.
