Ah, yeah, I was mixing up the two but the story is the same for both.
net_prio configures the prioidx and net_cls the classid and the two
may or may not (but more likely not) be on the same hierarchy and
definitely not on the cgroup2 hierarchy, so you can't really access
them through a single ->sk_cgroup pointer. After all, that's why we
ended up with these controllers.

Thanks.
