A skeletons *__detach() is not safe to call with a null pointer, though.
This led to a segfault.

Go the easy route and only call test_sock_fields__destroy() which is
null-pointer safe and includes detaching.

Came across this while looking[1] to introduce the usage of
bpf_tcp_helpers.h (included in progs/test_sock_fields.c) together with
vmlinux.h.

Great catch! I think we have similar detach & destroy pattern in a number
of places in selftests.

Should we rather just move the label, like:
