I think we should relax allowlist in patch 2 further.
Any sleepable is safe.
Allowlist is needed to avoid dead locking on css_set_lock.
Any lsm and any iter (even non-sleepable) and any sleepable
seems to be safe.

Then the above test would need s/fentry.s/fentry/ to stay relevant.

I would also add:

SEC("iter/cgroup")
int cgroup_id_printer(struct bpf_iter__cgroup *ctx)
{
        struct seq_file *seq = ctx->meta->seq;
        struct cgroup *cgrp = ctx->cgroup;

        /* epilogue */
        if (cgrp == NULL) ..

        bpf_for_each(css_task, task, css, CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS) {
           BPF_SEQ_PRINTF(); // something about task
        }

To demonstrate how new kfunc iter can be combined with cgroup iter and
it won't deadlock, though cgroup iter is not sleepable.

I've applied the current set. Pls send a follow up. Thanks
