pkt_list_lock was used before commit 71dc9ec9ac7d ("virtio/vsock:
replace virtio_vsock_pkt with sk_buff") to protect the packet queue.
After that commit we switched to sk_buff and we are using
sk_buff_head.lock in almost every place to protect the packet queue
except in vsock_loopback_work() when we call skb_queue_splice_init().
As reported by syzbot, this caused unlocked concurrent access to the
packet queue between vsock_loopback_work() and
vsock_loopback_cancel_pkt() since it is not holding pkt_list_lock.
With the introduction of sk_buff_head, pkt_list_lock is redundant and
can cause confusion, so let's remove it and use sk_buff_head.lock
everywhere to protect the packet queue access.
