Add an enum (cgroup_bpf_attach_type) containing only valid cgroup_bpf attach types and a function to map bpf_attach_type values to the new enum. Inspired by netns_bpf_attach_type. Then, migrate cgroup_bpf to use cgroup_bpf_attach_type wherever possible. Functionality is unchanged as attach_type_to_prog_type switches in bpf/syscall.c were preventing non-cgroup programs from making use of the invalid cgroup_bpf array slots. As a result struct cgroup_bpf uses 504 fewer bytes relative to when its arrays were sized using MAX_BPF_ATTACH_TYPE. bpf_cgroup_storage is notably not migrated as struct bpf_cgroup_storage_key is part of uapi and contains a bpf_attach_type member which is not meant to be opaque. Similarly, bpf_cgroup_link continues to report its bpf_attach_type member to userspace via fdinfo and bpf_link_info. To ease disambiguation, bpf_attach_type variables are renamed from 'type' to 'atype' when changed to cgroup_bpf_attach_type.

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 Restructured Text 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.
