Is there a double-free of env->insn_aux_data on the out_restore path?

restore_insn_aux_data() sets env->insn_aux_data = orig_insn_aux, then
out_restore falls through to out_free_aux which does
kvfree(orig_insn_aux), freeing the just-restored pointer.

Later, bpf_check() cleanup runs:

    clear_insn_aux_data(env, 0, env->prog->len);
    vfree(env->insn_aux_data);

which would be a use-after-free followed by a double-free.

The out_restore path is reached when bpf_jit_blind_constants() or
__jit_subprogs() fails while blinding was active, which can happen
under memory pressure with multi-subprog BPF programs.

It looks like out_restore needs a goto out_cleanup (or similar) after
kvfree(orig_subprog_starts) to skip the out_free_aux label, since after
restoring, orig_insn_aux is owned by env->insn_aux_data and must not be
freed here.

This regression is not fixed by later commits in the series.
