Ah, sorry, it's not so simple, as we probably need to take
the cgroup pointer from the socket, not from current.

So the implementation of the helper should be different
for this type of programs.

So I wonder if it's better to introduce a new helper
bpf_get_sock_cgroup_id()?

What do you think?

Thanks!
