For inlining. Just wanted to get it done right, otherwise I'll likely be
returning to it back in a few months complaining that I see measurable
overhead from the function call :)

Do you expect that direct call to bring any visible overhead?
Would be nice to compare that inlined case vs
__cgroup_bpf_prog_array_is_empty inside of __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb
while you're at it (plus move offset initialization down?).

Sorry but that would be waste of time. I naively hope it will be visible
with net at some moment (if not already), that's how it was with io_uring,
that's what I see in the block layer. And in anyway, if just one inlined
won't make a difference, then 10 will.
