Yonghong, I realized that seek() which Tejun has been calling out, can
be used to specify the target cgroup, rather than adding a new
parameter. Maybe, we can pass cgroup_id to seek() on cgroup bpf_iter,
which will instruct read() to return the corresponding cgroup's stats.
On the other hand, reading without calling seek() beforehand will
return all the cgroups.

WDYT?
