A socket fd passed in a SCM_RIGHTS datagram was not getting
updated with the new tasks cgrp prioidx. This leaves IO on
the socket tagged with the old tasks priority.

To fix this add a check in the scm recvmsg path to update the
sock cgrp prioidx with the new tasks value.

Thanks to Al Viro for catching this.

nit: You can replace the prioidx variable above and this set with a call to
sock_update_netprioidx

Neil
OK but then I should also make sock_update_netprioidx inline and drop
the in_interrupt() call. I'll send a v3 with this change and also a
third patch to fix a race between write_priomap and cgrp_create (also
spotted by Al Viro).
