No, I thought I could make it more secure.

No, I do not need it for any other reason, so I will simply free the
requests in TFO queue.
Thank you.

The listening socket has two kinds of refcounts for itself(1) and
requests(n). I think the listener has its own refcount at least in
inet_csk_listen_stop(), so sock_put() here never free the listener.
