YiFei Zhu 43745d11bf bpftool: Fix regression of "bpftool cgroup tree" EINVAL on older kernels
If cgroup_has_attached_progs queries an attach type not supported
by the running kernel, due to the kernel being older than the bpftool
build, it would encounter an -EINVAL from BPF_PROG_QUERY syscall.

Prior to commit 98b303c9bf ("bpftool: Query only cgroup-related
attach types"), this EINVAL would be ignored by the function, allowing
the function to only consider supported attach types. The commit
changed so that, instead of querying all attach types, only attach
types from the array `cgroup_attach_types` is queried. The assumption
is that because these are only cgroup attach types, they should all
be supported. Unfortunately this assumption may be false when the
kernel is older than the bpftool build, where the attach types queried
by bpftool is not yet implemented in the kernel. This would result in
errors such as:

  $ bpftool cgroup tree
  CgroupPath
  ID       AttachType      AttachFlags     Name
  Error: can't query bpf programs attached to /sys/fs/cgroup: Invalid argument

This patch restores the logic of ignoring EINVAL from prior to that patch.

Fixes: 98b303c9bf ("bpftool: Query only cgroup-related attach types")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
