Oleksij Rempel e940e0895a can: skb: can_skb_set_owner(): fix ref counting if socket was closed before setting skb ownership
There are two ref count variables controlling the free()ing of a socket:
- struct sock::sk_refcnt - which is changed by sock_hold()/sock_put()
- struct sock::sk_wmem_alloc - which accounts the memory allocated by
  the skbs in the send path.

In case there are still TX skbs on the fly and the socket() is closed,
the struct sock::sk_refcnt reaches 0. In the TX-path the CAN stack
clones an "echo" skb, calls sock_hold() on the original socket and
references it. This produces the following back trace:

To fix this problem, only set skb ownership to sockets which have still
a ref count > 0.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
