Then, I tried using call_rcu() to avoid the problem you are saying,
but when you stop the reproducer, sk_free() will warn printing 
"optmem leakage.." because the rcu callback didn't run yet.
This is probably because your call_rcu() callback was trying to call sock_kfree_s() ?

 		rtnl_unlock();
		call_rcu(&iml->lock, callback_func)

callback_func()
{
	sock_kfree_s(sk, iml, sizeof(*iml));
}



Take a look at sock_kfree_s() definition :

void sock_kfree_s(struct sock *sk, void *mem, int size)
{
        kfree(mem);
        atomic_sub(size, &sk->sk_omem_alloc);
}


You can certainly try :

	rtnl_unlock();
	atomic_sub(sizeof(*iml), sk->sk_omem_alloc);
	call_rcu(&iml->rcu, kfree);

(immediate sk_omem_alloc handling, but deferred kfree())
