audit: use proper refcount locking on audit_sock
Resetting audit_sock appears to be racy. audit_sock was being copied and dereferenced without using a refcount on the source sock. Bump the refcount on the underlying sock when we store a refrence in audit_sock and release it when we reset audit_sock. audit_sock modification needs the audit_cmd_mutex. See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/26/232 Thanks to Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> and Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> on ideas how to fix it.
