It is Suspend Resume scenario and in this case close(sock_id) is 
not called and hence packet_release is also not called. 
In case of suspend, driver power down its ethernet port and release all the
sk_buff stored in RX and TX ring. driver calls dev_kfree_skb_any to release all
the sk_buff in tx ring and if last tx buff of socket is called then 
packet_sock_destruct() will be invoked and will result in warning if and recevive sk_buff is 
still in receive queue. 

Driver calls dev_kfree_skb_any->dev_kfree_skb_irq 
and it adds buffer in completion queue to free and raises softirq NET_TX_SOFTIRQ

net_tx_action->__kfree_skb->skb_release_all->skb_release_head_state->sock_wfree->
__sk_free->packet_sock_destruct 

Also purging of receive queue has been taken care in other protocols.
// IP protocol
void inet_sock_destruct(struct sock *sk)
{
        struct inet_sock *inet = inet_sk(sk);

        __skb_queue_purge(&sk->sk_receive_queue);   // Purge Receive queue
        __skb_queue_purge(&sk->sk_error_queue);

.... 

         WARN_ON(atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc));
        WARN_ON(atomic_read(&sk->sk_wmem_alloc));
 }

So i think it should be done in Raw sockets also.

Hmm, not quite. See 2b85a34e911b ("net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put()
on each tx") on how it is supposed to work.

See packet_create(): sk_alloc() inits sk_wmem_alloc to 1, sock_init_data() sets
sk_refcnt to 1. sock_hold()/__sock_put() pair in packet sock is managed when we
register/unregister proto hooks.

The other sock_put() in packet_release() to drop the final ref and call into
sk_free(), which drops the 1 ref on the sk_wmem_alloc from init time. Since you
got into __sk_free() via sock_wfree() destructor, your socket must have invoked
packet_release() prior to this (perhaps kernel destroying the process).

What kernel do you use?
