I also suggested to try to stay with one way for fullsock context in v2
but it is for code readability reason.

How about calling CGROUP_BPF_TYPE_ENABLED() just next to cgroup_bpf_enabled()
in BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_*SOCKOPT_*() instead ?
It is because both cgroup_bpf_enabled() and CGROUP_BPF_TYPE_ENABLED()
want to check if there is bpf to run before proceeding everything else
and then I don't need to jump to the non-inline function itself to see
if there is other prog array empty check.

Stan, do you have concern on an extra inlined sock_cgroup_ptr()
when there is bpf prog to run for set/getsockopt()?  I think
it should be mostly noise from looking at
__cgroup_bpf_run_filter_*sockopt()?
