That patch is solving a non-existant problem while creating a real problem. Just because a socket is allocated in the init name space doesn't mean that it gets hashed in the init name space. When we unhash it the name space must be the same as the one we had when we hashed it. So this patch is completely bogus and causes socket leaks.
