I imagine that we'll need the "protocol" comparison as well, in line
with your fix for the bind() and connect() functionality at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241003143932.2431249-1-ivanov.mikhail1@huawei-partners.com/
?

The socket gets locked twice when doing listen() -- first it is locked
by the security hook, then released again, then locked again by the
actual listen() implementation and then released again.
What if the protected values change in between the two times when the
lock is held? What is the reasoning for why this is safe? (This
might be worth a comment in the code to explain, IMHO.)

Nit: The last two lines could just be
err = check_access_socket(...);
and then you would only need the release_sock(sk) call in one place.
(And maybe rename the goto label accordingly.)
