mainlining shenanigans
216e3cd2f2
Some helper functions may modify its arguments, for example, bpf_d_path, bpf_get_stack etc. Previously, their argument types were marked as ARG_PTR_TO_MEM, which is compatible with read-only mem types, such as PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF. Therefore it's legitimate, but technically incorrect, to modify a read-only memory by passing it into one of such helper functions. This patch tags the bpf_args compatible with immutable memory with MEM_RDONLY flag. The arguments that don't have this flag will be only compatible with mutable memory types, preventing the helper from modifying a read-only memory. The bpf_args that have MEM_RDONLY are compatible with both mutable memory and immutable memory.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
