From: Milan Landaverde <milan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e89f3edffb860a0f54a9ed16deadb7a4a1fa3862 ] In [0], we added the ability to bpf_prog_attach LSM programs to cgroups, but in our validation to make sure the prog is meant to be attached to BPF_LSM_CGROUP, we return too early if the check fails. This results in lack of decrementing prog's refcnt (through bpf_prog_put) leaving the LSM program alive past the point of the expected lifecycle. This fix allows for the decrement to take place.
