Sorry for late reply.

What we know about sk before inet6?_lookup_reuseport() are

  (1) sk was full socket in bpf_sk_assign()
  (2) sk had SOCK_RCU_FREE in bpf_sk_assign()
  (3) sk was TCP_LISTEN here if TCP

After bpf_sk_assign(), reqsk is never converted to fullsock, and UDP
never clears SOCK_RCU_FREE.  If sk is TCP, now we are in the RCU grace
period and confirmed sk->sk_state was TCP_LISTEN.  Then, TCP_LISTEN sk
cannot be reused and SOCK_RCU_FREE is never cleared.

So, before/after inet6?_lookup_reuseport(), the fact that sk is not
refcounted here should not change in spite of that reuse_sk is NULL.

What do you think ?
