In order to protect the running application containers by utilizing bpf LSM, we need to upload the security rules into bpf maps in container granularity, however, there is no effective bpf helper to identify the container, especially for cgroup v1. Generally, the only thing which the user side can get is container ID, and the cgroup path for this running container is fixed if we know the container ID, therefore, bpf programs also need to get the cgroup path for the running task in order to apply security rules stored in bpf maps. This patch add a bpf helper - bpf_get_current_cpuset_cgroup_path(), which return the cpuset cgroup path for the current task, since cgroup_path_ns() can sleep, this helper is only allowed for sleepable LSM hooks. Concern: Since cgroup_path_ns() takes 'cgroup_mutex' and 'css_set_lock' lock, I'm not sure if there is any dead lock code path in LSM hooks.
