We have been hitting a kernel bug on 4.9 for the verifier tests. An underflow on the memlock rlimit counter, caused by the reallocation of BPF programs not updating the charged values, makes the counter go under zero and convert into a huge value, blocking all further loads of BPF objects [0]. This has been fixed in kernel 4.10 [1], and was backported at last in 4.9.326. We generated a new Ubuntu image based on that, let's update.
