I wonder in what situation a null 'task' or 'ancestor' can be passed.
Please call out in the comment that the returned value can be a
negative error, so that writing if(bpf_task_under_cgroup()) may cause
surprising results.

Hmm, you are right. As kfunc, the NULL value of the parameter is judged, and bpf verify will prompt the developer to add it. There is really no need to add this part of the judgment. See other people's opinions.
