Subject: [PATCH RFC 2/2] strparser: Call sock_owned_by_user_nocheck

strparser wants to check socket ownership without producing any
warnings. As indicated by the comment in the code, it is permissible
for owned_by_user to return true.

Fixes: 43a0c6751a322847 ("strparser: Stream parser for messages")
