Do you mean here?
	err = security_socket_post_create(sock, family, type, protocol, kern);
	if (err)
		goto out_sock_release;
        ...

	out_sock_release:
		sock_release(sock);
		return err;
yes, the call trace may like below:
	sock_release->__sock_release->inet_release->tcp_close->sock_put->sk_free->__sk_free->sk_destruct->
	__sk_destruct->sk_prot_free->security_sk_free->selinux_sk_free_security->selinux_netlbl_sk_security_free->
	netlbl_secattr_free

so, it is no need to free in selinux_netlbl_socket_post_create().
Please correct me if this is incorrect.

The issue has been found by syzkaller, but unfortunately it is no reproducer, it is
only some backtrace.
