I cannot see any hole to iter the bpf_sk_storage_map and also
bpf_sk_storage_get/delete() itself for now.

I have looked at other iters (e.g. tcp, udp, and sock_map iter).
It will be good if you can double check them also.

I think at least one more test on the tcp iter is needed.

Other than that,
