I tried to debug this issue with the kdb on 2.4.1-pre7.
Here is the stack trace

mcount+0x1f9
wait_for_packet+0x13
skb_recv_datagram+0xbb
unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x53
sock_recvmsg+0x41
sock_read+0x8f
sys_read+0xa4
system_call+0x3c

I looked at the skb_recv_datagram code and noticed that wait_for_packet is not
returning an error, even while trying to read a closed socket.
Anyways here is a patch against 2.4.1 that will fix the issue.
Please feel free to flame me about the patch :)

thanks
