 Hm, I believe this flag means "this inp has been dropped by the TCP
stack, so don't use it anymore".  Actually this flag is better described
in the function that sets it:

"(INP_DROPPED) is used by TCP to mark an inpcb as unused and avoid
future packet delivery or event notification when a socket remains open
but TCP has closed."

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/release/11.0.0/sys/netinet/in_pcb.c#L1320

/*
 * in_pcbdrop() removes an inpcb from hashed lists, releasing its
address and
 * port reservation, and preventing it from being returned by inpcb lookups.
 *
 * It is used by TCP to mark an inpcb as unused and avoid future packet
 * delivery or event notification when a socket remains open but TCP has
 * closed.  This might occur as a result of a shutdown()-initiated TCP close
 * or a RST on the wire, and allows the port binding to be reused while
still
 * maintaining the invariant that so_pcb always points to a valid inpcb
until
 * in_pcbdetach().
 *
 */
void
in_pcbdrop(struct inpcb *inp)
{
  inp->inp_flags |= INP_DROPPED;
  ...

 The classical example where "goto findpcb" is useful:  You receive a
new connection request with a TCP SYN packet and this packet is unlucky
and reached a inp being dropped:

 - with "goto findpcb" approach, the next lookup will most likely find
the LISTEN inp and start the TCP hand-shake as usual
 - with "drop the packet" approach, the TCP client will need to
re-transmit a TCP SYN packet

 It is not because a packet was unlucky once that it deserves to be
dropped. :)
