Yeah, no.

There's still something wrong. The second boot looked fine, but then
starting chrome had a 15s delay, and when that cleared I got a
notification that 'gnome-settings-daemon' had crashed.

And the backtrace is basically identical to the one I saw with
gsd-screensaver-proxy.

So it's some socket that times out, but reverting these three

  a215b5723922 netlink: make sure we allow at least one dump skb
  a3c4a125ec72 netlink: Fix rmem check in netlink_broadcast_deliver().
  ae8f160e7eb2 netlink: Fix wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.

did *not* fix it.

Were there any other socket changes perhaps?

I just looked, and gsd-screensaver-proxy seems to use a regular Unix
domain stream socket. Maybe not related to netlink, did unix domain
sockets end up with some similar changes?
