syzbot suspects this issue was fixed by commit:

    bpf, sockmap: Fix double bpf_prog_put on error case in map_link
I can confirm the above commit fixes the issue, but it references a
slightly different report. Looks like the only difference is
__bpf_prog_put instead of bpf_prog_put:

KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds Read in __bpf_prog_put
KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds Read in bpf_prog_put

However, looking at the stack traces for the two bugs shows that
__bpf_prog_put() is really the location for both reports, see:

vs.

Looks to me like the compiler's inlining decision caused syzbot to see
__bpf_prog_put() instead of bpf_prog_put(), but I can't tell if it's
because it got inlined or because of the .constprop.0 suffix... I
guess syzbot skips the [inline] entries when deciding which function
to report the bug in?
Not sure if you are still interested in this or not...
But, yes, it's inline frames that are a problem, ".constprop.0" should
be stripped.
syzkaller parses non-symbolized kernel output w/o inlined frames to
extract the title. This was a very early decision, not sure if it's
the right one or not. On the other hand using inline frames can cause
attribution to all the common one-liners.
Now it's somewhat hard to change b/c if we change it, new crashes will
be parsed differently and it will cause a storm of duplicates for
already reported bugs.

In any case:

#syz dup: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds Read in bpf_prog_put
