This is actually per design, varnish keeps backend connections around
if they look like they can be reused, and only revisits them when it
tries to reuse them, so they may linger for quite a while before
varnish discovers they have been closed by the backend.

Apart from the socket hanging around, it is harmless.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
