It's dereferenced as UNIXCB(skb).consumed first in
unix_stream_read_actor().

Then, 1 byte of data is copied without -EFAULT because
unix_stream_recv_urg() always passes 1 as chunk (size) to
recv_actor().

That's why I said KASAN should be working on your setup and suggested
running the repro with/without KASAN. If KASAN is turned off, single
byte garbage is copied from the freed area.

See the last returned values below

Without KASAN:

It's not, because this just prints the address of OOB skb just after
it's illegally consumed without MSG_OOB. The code is only called
for the illegal OOB during the repro.

Note this is on top of net-next where no additional refcnt is taken
for OOB, so no need to print skb's refcnt. Also the length is not
related because chunk is always 1.
