No problem, I was worried I was missing an important piece of kfunc
plumbing :-)

You do raise a good point though.  With kfuncs, module is pinned.
So, should a "please turn on defrag for this bpf_link" pin
the defrag modules too?

For plain netfilter we don't do that, i.e. you can just do
"rmmod nf_defrag_ipv4".  But I suspect that for the new bpf-link
defrag we probably should grab a reference to prevent unwanted
functionality breakage of the bpf prog.
