Subject: [bpf-next v2 1/2] bpf/helpers: bpf_strnstr: Exact match length

From: Rong Tao <rongtao@...tc.cn>

strnstr should not treat the ending '\0' of s2 as a matching character,
otherwise the parameter 'len' will be meaningless, for example:

    1. bpf_strnstr("openat", "open", 4) = -ENOENT
    2. bpf_strnstr("openat", "open", 5) = 0

This patch makes (1) return 0, indicating a successful match.
