Subject: act_bpf: fix memory leaks when replacing bpf programs

From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>

[ 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
