The problem is we call proto update twice that bumps the refcnt
when adding a the same element to the map in the same slot. I'll fix
this on sockmap side so we can keep the current af_unix logic. Should
be able to push a fix tomorrow.

We probably never noticed for other socket types because its an
unusal replace to do same sock/same slot, but af_unix has this
side effect of incrementing the refcnt that doesn't exist elsewhere.

Thanks,
John
