... and after the merge with net-next#master that BUG_ON() is gone, so
you are still just fine.

FWIW, in the current for-davem (or in net-next#master, now that Dave has
pulled it) the functions in question are:
static inline int sock_recvmsg_nosec(struct socket *sock, struct msghdr *msg,
                                     size_t size, int flags)
{
        return sock->ops->recvmsg(sock, msg, size, flags);
}

int sock_recvmsg(struct socket *sock, struct msghdr *msg, size_t size,
                 int flags) 
{
        int err = security_socket_recvmsg(sock, msg, size, flags);

        return err ?: sock_recvmsg_nosec(sock, msg, size, flags);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(sock_recvmsg);
static ssize_t sock_read_iter(struct kiocb *iocb, struct iov_iter *to)
{
        struct file *file = iocb->ki_filp;
        struct socket *sock = file->private_data;
        struct msghdr msg = {.msg_iter = *to,
                             .msg_iocb = iocb};
        ssize_t res;

        if (file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK)
                msg.msg_flags = MSG_DONTWAIT;

        if (iocb->ki_pos != 0)
                return -ESPIPE; 

        if (!iov_iter_count(to))        /* Match SYS5 behaviour */
                return 0;

        res = sock_recvmsg(sock, &msg, iov_iter_count(to), msg.msg_flags);
        *to = msg.msg_iter;
        return res;
}

AFAICS, everything looks fine.  Now, _another_ BUG_ON() might be worth
eventual removal (one in sock_sendmsg_nosec()), but right now we don't
have async ->sendmsg() instances, so it's not urgent.
