Okay, I figured out what you mean, I think.  You have a handful of vrf
devices.  Let's say they have ifindexes 1 and 2 (and maybe more).

The interesting case happens when you set up /cgroup/a with a bpf
program that binds new sockets to ifindex 1 and /cgroup/a/b with a bpf
program that binds new sockets to ifindex 2.  The question is: what
should happen if you're in /cgroup/a/b?  Presumably, if you do this,
you wanted to end up with ifindex 2.

I think the way it should actually work is that the kernel evaluates
/cgroup/a/b's hook and then /cgroup/a's hook.  Then /cgroup/a (which
is the more privileged hook) gets to make the choice.  If it wants
ifindex 2 to win, it can do (pseudocode):

if (!sk->sk_bound_if)
  sk->sk_bound_if = 1;
