Minor detail, but note that raw sockets do not use rcu (yet)

Since you have read_lock(&hashinfo->lock), no writer can suddenly change
sk->sk_refcnt to a zero value.

Therefore, a mere "sock_hold(sk)" should be enough to get a reference on
the socket.

Using atomic_inc_not_zero() also works, but might distract/confuse the
next guy trying to understand this code ;)
