I think it's still problematic. BPF link might have been the last one
that holds bpf_prog's refcnt, so when link is put, its prog can stay
there in effective_progs array(s) and will cause use-after-free
anyways.

It would be best to make sure that detach never fails. On detach
effective prog array can only shrink, so even if
update_effective_progs() fails to allocate memory, we should be able
to iterate and just replace that prog with NULL, as a fallback
strategy.

there is no guarantee that this will now succeed, right? so it's more
like "let's try just in case we are lucky this time"?
