I have an experimental diff with in_pcbsolock() that runs tcp_input()
in parallel.  It seems that keeping locks and refcounts gets more
complicated than just relying on so_lock alone to avoid destruction
in a different thread.

So I prefer to keep in_pcbsolock() as it is.  We can always change
it later.

First step would be to get the sc_inplisten refcount part commited.
