Both paragraphs for __cgroup_bpf_update() currently say:

[...]
  * If @prog is %NULL, this function attaches a new program to the cgroup and
  * releases the one that is currently attached, if any. @prog is then made
  * the effective program of type @type in that cgroup.
  *
  * If @prog is %NULL, the currently attached program of type @type is released,
  * and the effective program of the parent cgroup (if any) is inherited to
  * @cgrp.
[...]

It looks to me that you are 'fixing' the wrong location. First paragraph is
actually missing a "not", which would then also align with what the code does.
