This is the final fix for the use-after-free scenario described in
commit 7793fc3babe9 ("bpf: Make bpf_refcount_acquire fallible for
non-owning refs"). That commit, by virtue of changing
bpf_refcount_acquire's refcount_inc to a refcount_inc_not_zero, fixed
the "refcount incr on 0" splat. The not_zero check in
refcount_inc_not_zero, though, still occurs on memory that could have
been free'd and reused, so the commit didn't properly fix the root
cause.
This patch actually fixes the issue by free'ing using the recently-added
bpf_mem_free_rcu, which ensures that the memory is not reused until
RCU grace period has elapsed. If that has happened then
there are no non-owning references alive that point to the
recently-free'd memory, so it can be safely reused.
