Fix kernel_accept() return handling.

patch fa8705b00aeca19d91a1437b8a5cf865999b28f6 in mainline.

[NET]: sanitize kernel_accept() error path

If kernel_accept() returns an error, it may pass back a pointer to
freed memory (which the caller should ignore).  Make it pass back NULL
instead for better safety.
