Well, if you're using IrNET, then those sock_alloc_send_skb() calls
should come from the IP code (net/ipv4/af_inet.c). Do you have a way to
verify that ?
The skb should eventually be freed by the IrDA hardware driver, when the
frame is actually transmitted. Are you using the pxaficp_ir driver ?

P.S.: I propose we remove the -rt people and Mingo from this discussion
until we know for sure that it's an RT bug. If no one objects, I'll
remove them from the CC list.
