mainlining shenanigans

Adding support to access arguments with int pointer arguments in tracing programs. Currently we allow tracing programs to access only pointers to string (char pointer), void pointers and pointers to structs. If we try to access argument which is pointer to int, verifier will fail to load the program with; R1 type=ctx expected=fp ; int BPF_PROG(fmod_ret_test, int _a, __u64 _b, int _ret) 0: (bf) r6 = r1 ; int BPF_PROG(fmod_ret_test, int _a, __u64 _b, int _ret) 1: (79) r9 = *(u64 *)(r6 +8) func 'bpf_modify_return_test' arg1 type INT is not a struct There is no harm for the program to access int pointer argument. We are already doing that for string pointer, which is pointer to int with 1 byte size. Changing the is_string_ptr to generic integer check and renaming it to btf_type_is_int.

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.
