The locking needs slightly more tweaking -- note that you still need to
unlock (inp) if (tp = intotcpcb(inp)) returns NULL, and right now that
won't happen.  The "check tp for NULL" unlock case should only occur if
you call tcp_drop().  Perhaps something like this:

	INP_LOCK(inp);
	if ((tp = intotcpcb(inp)) &&
	    ((inp->inp_socket->so_options & SO_ACCEPTCONN) == 0)) {
		tp = tcp_drop(tp, ECONNABORTED);
		if (tp != NULL)
			INP_UNLOCK(inp);
	} else
		INP_UNLOCK(inp);
