FWIW, BSD folks unlock the socket for the duration of mknod - mark it as
"somebody's trying to bind it" to avoid the fun with racing double bind(),
but that's about it.  Tempting, to be honest...

BTW, why does unix_autobind() do allocation under ->readlock?  The allocation
will be normally used - that if (u->addr) return; part is just dealing with
an unlikely race, as far as I can see...
