Can you elaborate on the BPF connection?

If I understand correctly, a udp-gro-list skb makes it up the receive
path with one or more active packet sockets.

The packet socket will call skb_clone after accepting the filter. This
replaces the head_skb, but shares the skb_shinfo and thus frag_list.

udp_rcv_segment later converts the udp-gro-list skb to a list of
regular packets to pass these one-by-one to udp_queue_rcv_one_skb.
Now all the frags are fully fledged packets, with headers pushed
before the payload. This does not change their refcount anymore than
the skb_clone in pf_packet did. This should be 1.

Eventually udp_recvmsg will call skb_consume_udp on each packet.

The packet socket eventually also frees its cloned head_skb, which triggers

  kfree_skb_list(shinfo->frag_list)
    kfree_skb
      skb_unref
        refcount_dec_and_test(&skb->users)

I must be missing something still. This does not square with my
understanding that the two sockets are operating on clones, with each
frag_list skb having skb->users == 1.

Unless the packet socket patch previously also triggered an
skb_unclone/pskb_expand_head, as that call skb_clone_fraglist, which
calls skb_get on each frag_list skb.
