If we do not have a sync variant here, I think that inet_twsk_purge()
could return while ongoing timers are alive.

tcp_sk_exit_batch() would then possibly hit :

WARN_ON_ONCE(!refcount_dec_and_test(&net->ipv4.tcp_death_row.tw_refcount));

The alive timer are releasing tw->tw_dr->tw_refcount at the end of
inet_twsk_kill()

Presumably, adding some udelay(200) in inet_twsk_kill() could help a
syzkaller instance to trigger a bug.
