That's one of the already known sequences for triggering this issue: The
close will clear the peer pointer of the closed socket, hence, the 2nd
sock_poll_wait will be called by unix_dgram_poll. The write will
execute unix_dgram_sendmsg which detects that the peer is dead and
disconnects from it, causing the corresponding structures to be freed
despite they're still used.

NB: I didn't execute this but I spend a fair amount of time with the
af_unix.c code during the last couple of weeks and consider myself
"reasonably familiar" with it and that's IMO what should happen here.
