This doesn't matter at all as long as it doesn't sync setsockopt() path.

Another thread calling  tipc_sk_join() could jump in at any time
since we don't have the sock locked here. This is why I said
we probably need to lock the sock here, unless of course
you can refactor the logic to make tipc_poll() not to touch
tsk->group.
