Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 1/2] bpf: Add bpf_task_from_pid() kfunc
Callers can currently store tasks as kptrs using bpf_task_acquire(),
bpf_task_kptr_get(), and bpf_task_release(). These are useful if a
caller already has a struct task_struct *, but there may be some callers
who only have a pid, and want to look up the associated struct
task_struct * from that to e.g. find task->comm.
This patch therefore adds a new bpf_task_from_pid() kfunc which allows
BPF programs to get a struct task_struct * kptr from a pid.
