RCU rules should prevail.

An RCU grace period must be enforced if the same UDP socket has its
sk_user_data changed.

Normally, UDP socket observes an RCU grace period at close/destroy
time. (SOCK_RCU_FREE)

If we detect the same UDP socket has not been closed between clearing
sk_user_data
and setting it again to a non NULL value, we must insert a synchronize_rcu()

A generic change could look like the following (but we must check that all
rcu_assign_sk_user_data() callers can sleep)

Avoiding using sk_user_data seems not practical.

However making sure it is not blindly overwritten by a buggy module is doable.
