Sorry for the long delay in reviewing.
Overall it looks very good.
Few questions:

Why change this behavior for BPF_PROG_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS_RUN_ARRAY ?
It's for an inet_egress hook only. In other words ip_output.
What kind of different error codes do you want to pass to
the stack from there?

Could you explain which part of this patch caused this change
in user visible behavior?
I understand the desire to do bpf_set_retval(-EINVAL) and return 0,
but progs/sockopt_sk.c is not doing it.
Where does EINVAL come from?
