Summary
bpf: Fix bpf_sk_select_reuseport() memory leak
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Fix bpfskselect_reuseport() memory leak

As pointed out in the original comment, lookup in sockmap can return a TCP ESTABLISHED socket. Such TCP socket may have had SOATTACHREUSEPORTEBPF set before it was ESTABLISHED. In other words, a non-NULL skreuseport_cb does not imply a non-refcounted socket.

Drop sk's reference in both error paths.
