Hi Jakub, can push this to bpf tree as well? There is another case
already in-kernel where this is needed. If the map is removed while
a recvmsg is in flight.

 tcp_bpf_recvmsg()
  psock = sk_psock_get(sk)                         <- refcnt 2
  lock_sock(sk);
  ...                                
                                  sock_map_free()  <- refcnt 1
  release_sock(sk)
  sk_psock_put()                                   <- refcnt 0

Then can you add this diff as well I got a bit too carried away
with that. If your busy I can do it as well if you want. Thanks!
