Maybe transports shouldn't call __vsock_create() directly. They always
pass NULL as the parent socket, so we could have a more specific
function that transports call without a parent sock argument. This
would eliminate any concern over moving vsock_insert_unbound() out of
this function. In any case, I've checked the code and this patch is
correct.
