Thanks for fixing this, and sorry if this caused a mess.

cgroup_get_from_file() independently seemed like it can support
cgroup1, I didn't realize that some of the callers depend on the fact
that it only supports cgroup2.

I wonder if BPF users have this dependency. Does cgroup_bpf_attach()
also depend on cgroup_get_from_fd() (which calls
cgroup_get_from_file()) eliminating v1 cgroups?

It seems like cgroup storages (and some other places) use cgroup ids.
Collisions can happen in cgroup1 ids so I am assuming we want to add a
check there as well. Perhaps in cgroup_bpf_attach() ?

I can send a patch for this if that's the case.
