I was just clarifying your comment to avoid misunderstanding about what
is being removed.
As said in the full response, there is currently a race but, if I add a
bpf_map_inc() call when the map is referenced by inode->security, then I
don't see how a race could occur because such added map could only be
freed in a security_inode_free() (as long as it retains a reference to
this inode).
