There is no need to delay putting either path or task to deallocation step. It can be done right after bpf_uprobe_unregister. Between release and dealloc, there could be still some running BPF programs, but they don't access either task or path, only data in link->uprobes, so it is safe to do. On the other hand, doing path_put() in dealloc callback makes this dealloc sleepable because path_put() itself might sleep. Which is problematic due to the need to call uprobe's dealloc through call_rcu(), which is what is done in the next bug fix patch. So solve the problem by releasing these resources early.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
