Are we looking at the same bpf_sk_assign? Confusingly there are two
very similarly named functions. The one we care about is:

BPF_CALL_3(bpf_sk_assign, struct sk_buff *, skb, struct sock *, sk, u64, flags)
{
if (!sk || flags != 0)
return -EINVAL;
if (!skb_at_tc_ingress(skb))
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
if (unlikely(dev_net(skb->dev) != sock_net(sk)))
return -ENETUNREACH;
if (sk_is_refcounted(sk) &&
unlikely(!refcount_inc_not_zero(&sk->sk_refcnt)))
return -ENOENT;

skb_orphan(skb);
skb->sk = sk;
skb->destructor = sock_pfree;

return 0;
}

>From this we can't tell what state the socket is in or whether it is
RCU freed or not.

Thanks
