The kernel crash was caused by a BPF program attached to the "lsm_cgroup/socket_sock_rcv_skb" hook, which performed a call to `bpf_setsockopt()` in order to set the TCP_NODELAY flag. This flag causes the kernel to flush the outgoing queue of a socket, and this hook can be triggered during a softirq. The issue was that in certain circumstances, when `tcp_write_xmit()` was called to flush the queue, it would also allow BH (bottom-half) to run. This could lead to our program attempting to flush the same socket recursively, which caused a `skbuf` to be unlinked twice. The patch fixes this issue by ensuring that a BPF program attached to the "lsm_cgroup/socket_sock_rcv_skb" hook is not allowed to call `bpf_setsockopt()`.
