That's essentially BUG_ON(list_empty(&u->link));

I see that all the code involving the ->link member hasn't really been 
touched since it was introduced in 2007. So this must be a latent bug. 
This is the first time I've observed it. The state 
of the struct unix_sock can be found here http://sprunge.us/WCMW . Evidently, 
there are no inflight sockets.
