Just searching for TCP_ESTABLISHED immediately brought me to tcp_input.c
(tcp_rcv_state_process() to be precise), so I'm not sure you've searched
that much. As you've noticed there's nothing specifically called in this
case, but in practice a caller of accept() on a listening socket will be
woken up.
Hoping this helps,
Willy
