Clearly, this statement in sys_accept is false:

        /*
         * We don't need try_module_get here, as the listening socket (sock)
         * has the protocol module (sock->ops->owner) held.
         */
        __module_get(sock->ops->owner);

Now, the question is, when is this not true? sock_create certainly
seems to grab a reference count to sock->ops->owner. Maybe a
refcounting bug elsewhere?
