Why do you want to overwrite tcp_bpf_prots->unhash? Overwriting
tcp_bpf_prots is correct, but overwriting tcp_bpf_prots->unhash is not.
Because once you overwrite it, the next time you use it to replace
sk->sk_prot, it would be a different one rather than sock_map_unhash():

// tcp_bpf_prots->unhash == sock_map_unhash
sk_psock_restore_proto();
// Now  tcp_bpf_prots->unhash is inet_unhash
...
sk_psock_update_proto();
// sk->sk_proto is now tcp_bpf_prots again,
// so its ->unhash now is inet_unhash
// but it should be sock_map_unhash here

Thanks.
