I got the below warning when do fuzzing test:

This is because the value of rec_seq of tls_crypto_info configured by the
user program is too large, for example, 0xffffffffffffff. In addition, TLS
is asynchronously accelerated. When tls_do_encryption() returns
-EINPROGRESS and sk->sk_err is set to EBADMSG due to rec_seq overflow,
skmsg is released before the asynchronous encryption process ends. As a
result, the UAF problem occurs during the asynchronous processing of the
encryption module.
If the operation is asynchronous and the encryption module returns
EINPROGRESS, do not free the record information.
Fixes: 635d939817 ("net/tls: free record only on encryption error")
