Wouldn't a more generic solution be to add a flag to sock_create_kern()
so that it acquires a reference to the namespace?
This could be a bit on one of the existing parameters - like SOCK_NONBLOCK.

I've a driver that uses __sock_create() in order to get that reference.
I'm pretty sure the extra 'security' check will never fail.
