When you send v2 with Alexei's feedback, please also be more specific
in your subject like "net: x86: bpf: don't forget to free sk_filter"
or the like. Also it's enough to say 'This memory leak was introduced
by commit d45ed4a4e3 ("net: fix unsafe set_memory_rw from softirq")'
instead of copying the whole log. Anyways, for v2 with feedback included
then:
