Repetition steps:

For the following cgroup tree,

root | cg1 | cg2

1. attach prog2 to cg2, and then attach prog1 to cg1, both bpf progs attach type is NONE or OVERRIDE. 2. write 1 to /proc/thread-self/fail-nth for failslab. 3. detach prog1 for cg1, and then kernel BUG occur.

Failslab injection will cause kmalloc fail and fall back to purge_effective_progs. The problem is that cg2 have attached another prog, so when go through cg2 layer, iteration will add pos to 1, and subsequent operations will be skipped by the following condition, and cg will meet NULL in the end.

`if (pos && !(cg->bpf.flags[atype] & BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI))`

The NULL cg means no link or prog match, this is as expected, and it's not a bug. So here just skip the no match situation.
