Partial copy is basically the same as user giving us garbage input, right?
That should still be handled correctly I think.

__cgroup_bpf_run_filter_getsockopt (via sockopt_alloc_buf) should handle both cases correctly:
- garbage input / partial copy resulting in negative number -> EINVAL
- garbage input / partial copy resulting in too large number -> potentially
  EFAULT when trying to copy PAGE_SIZE-worth of data

Also, for the EOPNOTSUPP case, we shouldn't even bother copying any data.

Am I missing something?
