you need rcu_dereference here? but also see suggestions below to avoid
iterating effective directly (it's ambiguous to search by prog only)

I think comparing just prog isn't always correct, as the same program
can be in effective array multiple times if attached through bpf_link.

Looking at replace_effective_prog() I think we can do a very similar
(and tested) approach:

1. restore original pl state in __cgroup_bpf_detach (so we can find it
by comparing pl->prog == prog && pl->link == link)
2. use replace_effective_prog's approach to find position of pl in
effective array (using this nested for loop over cgroup parents and
list_for_each_entry inside)
3. then instead of replacing one prog with another do
bpf_prog_array_delete_safe_at ?

I'd feel more comfortable using the same tested overall approach of
replace_effective_prog.

the search shouldn't fail, should it?

so here we shouldn't forget link, instead pass both link and prog (one
of them will have to be NULL) into purge_effective_progs
