can't access ->force_ioctl_attach directly, please use OPTS_GET()
macro; it handles possibility of old user app passing smaller and
older version of opts struct

just to be on the safe side, let's also check that we are not in
legacy mode here?

let's add case PROBE_ATTACH_MODE_DEFAULT: break; explicitly, but for
all other unknown values error out

all the same points as above for kprobe_opts version

"in legacy mode, using debugfs/tracefs" ?

nit: BPF link (it's a concept, not a struct name)
