Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/3] Enable struct_ops programs to be sleepable

BPF struct_ops programs currently cannot be marked as sleepable. This
need not be the case -- struct_ops programs could be sleepable, and e.g.
invoke kfuncs that export the KF_SLEEPABLE flag.

Enabling this is simple -- we just have to change a couple of lines in
the verifier. This patch set does that, then allows struct_ops backends
to validate the program being loaded to check if it's allowed to be
sleepable, and finally adds a testcase to validate all of this.

David Vernet (3):
  bpf: Allow BPF_PROG_TYPE_STRUCT_OPS programs to be sleepable
  bpf: Pass const struct bpf_prog * to .check_member
  bpf/selftests: Verify struct_ops prog sleepable behavior
