Subject: [RFC PATCH bpf-next 0/3] bpf: freeze a task cgroup from bpf

This patch series adds support to freeze the task cgroup hierarchy
that is on a default cgroup v2 without going through kernfs interface.

For some cases we want to freeze the cgroup of a task based on some
signals, doing so from bpf is better than user space which could be
too late.

Planned users of this feature are: tetragon and systemd when freezing
a cgroup hierarchy that could be a K8s pod, container, system service
or a user session.

Patch 1: cgroup: add cgroup_freeze_no_kn() to freeze a cgroup from bpf
Patch 2: bpf: add bpf_task_freeze_cgroup() to freeze the cgroup of a task
Patch 3: selftests/bpf: add selftest for bpf_task_freeze_cgroup
