It seems that I found the answer.

After reading the source code, comparing the codes of the two versions
I got the answer:

1.We can use sk_wq->wait instead of sk_wait.
2.Use reqsk_queue_empty(struct request_sock_queue*) to check if there
is a new connection to accept. (thsi method is in net/request_sock.h)
we can use it like:

 	struct inet_connection_sock *isock = inet_csk(socket->sk);
	if(reqsk_queue_empty(&isock->icsk_accept_queue)){
                 //sleep here
        }

I test them in my code, works well.
