SeCaptureSubjectContext captures token references that must be released via SeReleaseSubjectContext. Both ebpf_access_check and ebpf_platform_get_authentication_id were missing this call, leaking kernel token object references on every invocation. Add SeReleaseSubjectContext on all return paths in both functions. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
