Failslab injection will cause kmalloc fail and fall back to purge_effective_progs. The problem is that cg2 have attached another prog, so when go through cg2 layer, iteration will add pos to 1, and subsequent operations will be skipped by the following condition, and cg will meet NULL in the end. `if (pos && !(cg->bpf.flags[atype] & BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI))` The NULL cg means no link or prog match, this is as expected, and it's not a bug. So here just skip the no match situation.
