Wouldn't that be addressed by 48a87cc26c13b68f6cce4e9d769fcb17a6b3e4b8

   net: netprio: fd passed in SCM_RIGHTS datagram not set correctly

    A socket fd passed in a SCM_RIGHTS datagram was not getting
    updated with the new tasks cgrp prioidx. This leaves IO on
    the socket tagged with the old tasks priority.

    To fix this add a check in the scm recvmsg path to update the
    sock cgrp prioidx with the new tasks value.

As I read this this should work for net_prio.

but not for cls_cgroup because I forgot to apply that fix as well. Just
a sec, about to
send a patch for this.

Thanks for looking into this!

cheers,
