[PATCH bpf v2 0/2] bpf: Fix socket leaks around connect(AF_UNSPEC)+listen()

This is a follow-up to Sashiko's report[1].

Several BPF socket helpers acquire a socket reference only when
sk_is_refcounted() == true, and release it, independently, by
re-evaluating sk_is_refcounted() again at the time the release runs. TCP
connect(AF_UNSPEC)+listen() sets SOCK_RCU_FREE on an established socket.
If that happens while a reference is outstanding, the release side sees
sk_is_refcounted() == false and skips the put; the socket is leaked.
