Good point.  This is based on an assumption that all SO_REUSEPORT
sockets have the same score, which is wrong for two corner cases
if reuseport_has_conns() == true :

  1) SO_INCOMING_CPU is set
     -> selected sk might have +1 score

  2) BPF prog returns ESTABLISHED and/or SO_INCOMING_CPU sk
     -> selected sk will have more than 8

Using the old score could trigger more lookups depending on the
order that sockets are created.

  sk -> sk (SO_INCOMING_CPU) -> sk (ESTABLISHED)
  |     |
  `-> select the next SO_INCOMING_CPU sk
        |
	`-> select itself (We should save this lookup)

So, yes, we should update badness like

  if (unlikely(result)) {
      badness = compute_score(result, ...);
  } else {
      result = sk;
      badness = score;
  }
