Did you actually need it to be group_leader or current is enough?
If so loading BTF is not necessary.
You could have exposed it bpf_get_current_task_btf() and passed its
return value into bpf_task_storage_get.

On the other side loading BTF can be relaxed to unpriv,
but doing current->group_leader deref will make it priv only anyway.
