AF_UNIX stream sockets are a paired socket. So sending on one of the pairs
will lookup the paired socket as part of the send operation. It is possible
however to put just one of the pairs in a BPF map. This currently increments
the refcnt on the sock in the sockmap to ensure it is not free'd by the
stack before sockmap cleans up its state and stops any skbs being sent/recv'd
to that socket.
But we missed a case. If the peer socket is closed it will be free'd by the
stack. However, the paired socket can still be referenced from BPF sockmap
side because we hold a reference there. Then if we are sending traffic through
BPF sockmap to that socket it will try to dereference the free'd pair in its
send logic creating a use after free. And following splat:

To fix let BPF sockmap hold a refcnt on both the socket in the sockmap and its
paired socket. It wasn't obvious how to contain the fix to bpf_unix logic. The
primarily problem with keeping this logic in bpf_unix was: In the sock close()
we could handle the deref by having a close handler. But, when we are destroying
the psock through a map delete operation we wouldn't have gotten any signal
thorugh the proto struct other than it being replaced. If we do the deref from
the proto replace its too early because we need to deref the sk_pair after the
backlog worker has been stopped.
Given all this it seems best to just cache it at the end of the psock and eat 8B
for the af_unix and vsock users. Notice dgram sockets are OK because they handle
locking already.
