4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f4eaed28c7834fc049c754f63e6988bbd73778d9 ]

We currently trigger multiple memory leaks when replacing bpf
actions, besides others:

comm "tc", pid 1909, jiffies 4294851310 (age 1602.796s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):

Issue is that the old content from tcf_bpf is allocated and needs
to be released when we replace it. We seem to do that since the
beginning of act_bpf on the filter and insns, later on the name as
well.

Example test case, after patch:

# FOO="1,6 0 0 4294967295,"
# BAR="1,6 0 0 4294967294,"
# tc actions add action bpf bytecode "$FOO" index 2
# tc actions show action bpf
action order 0: bpf bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967295' default-action pipe
index 2 ref 1 bind 0
# tc actions replace action bpf bytecode "$BAR" index 2
# tc actions show action bpf
action order 0: bpf bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967294' default-action pipe
index 2 ref 1 bind 0
# tc actions replace action bpf bytecode "$FOO" index 2
# tc actions show action bpf
action order 0: bpf bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967295' default-action pipe
index 2 ref 1 bind 0
# tc actions del action bpf index 2
[...]
# echo "scan" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak | grep "comm \"tc\"" | wc -l
0
