  When an inpcb doesn't have a socket but the inpcb is passed to ipfw
  in the transmit path, such as TCPS_TIMEWAIT, fail the credential
  extraction immediately rather than acquiring locks and looking up
  the inpcb on the global lists in order to reach the conclusion that
  the credential extraction has failed.
  
  This is more efficient, but more importantly, it avoids lock
  recursion on the inpcbinfo, which is no longer allowed with rwlocks.
  This appears to have been responsible for at least two reported
  panics.
