This header looks to be pretty screwed up:

- Extraneous newline after "struct cgroup_netprio_state"

- Weird special-casing of the CONFIG_CGROUPS &&
  !CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP case looks suspicious.

- Unnecessary use of IS_ENABLED - jsut use #ifdef CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP

- Adds code stubs specifically for the CONFIG_CGROUPS &&
  !CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP case.  Doesn't add any for the !CONFIG_CGROUPS
  case.  Seems wrong.

- Uses empty macros for the sock_update_netprioidx() and
  skb_update_prio() which can cause build errors.  Should be changed to
  plain old typechecked inline C functions.  If that causes build
  errors then something else is screwed up.

- Adds a stub for skb_update_prio() but there's no non-stub version
  of it.

also

- doesn't compile


Needs a thorough redo.  Please take a look at the other cgroup
subsystem headers.  The basic pattern is

#ifdef CONFIG_FOO_CGROUP
<definitions and declarations>
#else
<any needed stubs go here>
#endif

And that's it.
