This is needed in the context of Cilium and Tetragon to retrieve netns

This is a follow-up of c221d3744ad3 ("bpf: add get_netns_cookie helper
to cgroup_skb programs") and eb62f49de7ec ("bpf: add get_netns_cookie
helper to tc programs"), adding this helper respectively to cgroup_skb
and tcx programs.
I looked up a patch doing a similar thing c5dbb89fc2ac ("bpf: Expose
bpf_get_socket_cookie to tracing programs") and there was an item about
"sleepable context". It seems it indeed concerns tracing and LSM progs
from reading 1e6c62a88215 ("bpf: Introduce sleepable BPF programs"). Is
this needed here?
Regarding sleepable, I think the bpf_get_netns_cookie_sock is only reading,
should be fine.
The immediate question is whether sock_net(sk) must be non-NULL for tracing.
