Thank you for reviewing this!

Could you please elaborate?

I'd like to drop some of them if possible.

atomic_inc(&up->can_reclaim);

could probably be replaced with atomic_set(&up->can_reclaim, 1) since we
don't have concurrent processes doing that and can_reclaim.counter is
known to be 0 at that point.
Performance wise the impact is minimal, since in normal condition we do
the reclaim only on socket shutdown.
