If sk_psock_verdict_data_ready() and sk_psock_stop_verdict() are called
concurrently, psock->saved_data_ready can be NULL, causing the above issue.

This patch fixes this issue by calling the appropriate data ready function
using the sk_psock_data_ready() helper and protecting it from concurrency
with sk->sk_callback_lock.
