The call chain is:
tcp_rcv_established => tcp_defer_accept_check => inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add => reqsk_queue_add

This issue is caused by tcp defer accept. Mostly, process context calls lock_sock
to apply a sleeping lock. BH (SoftIRQ) context calls bh_lock_sock(_nested) to just apply
for the sk->sk_lock.slock without sleeping, then do appropriate processing based on
if sk->sk_lock.owned==0. That works well if both process context and BH context operate
the same sk at the same time. But with tcp defer accept, it doesn't, because
process context(for example, in inet_csk_accept) locks the listen sk, while BH
context (in tcp_v4_rcv, for example) locks the child sk and calls
tcp_defer_accept_check => inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add => reqsk_queue_add, so there is a race
to access the listen sock.

Below patch against 2.6.26-rc6 fixes the issue.
