If the socket is in TCP_TIME_WAIT, then the uid will not be logged as it cannot
be determined:

        if (!sk || sk->sk_state == TCP_TIME_WAIT)
                return;

So you would need to figure out what state this socket is in when these "false
positives" are logged.  I would suggest that given this limitation, you either
live with the extra logging, or be more selective in what you log (e.g. by
using the ctstate match first?)
