Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 00/13] Introduce BPF STRUCT_OPS

This series introduces BPF STRUCT_OPS.  It is an infra to allow
implementing some specific kernel's function pointers in BPF.
The first use case included in this series is to implement
TCP congestion control algorithm in BPF  (i.e. implement
struct tcp_congestion_ops in BPF).

There has been attempt to move the TCP CC to the user space
(e.g. CCP in TCP).   The common arguments are faster turn around,
get away from long-tail kernel versions in production...etc,
which are legit points.

BPF has been the continuous effort to join both kernel and
userspace upsides together (e.g. XDP to gain the performance
advantage without bypassing the kernel).  The recent BPF
advancements (in particular BTF-aware verifier, BPF trampoline,
BPF CO-RE...) made implementing kernel struct ops (e.g. tcp cc)
possible in BPF.

The idea is to allow implementing tcp_congestion_ops in bpf.
It allows a faster turnaround for testing algorithm in the
production while leveraging the existing (and continue growing) BPF
feature/framework instead of building one specifically for
userspace TCP CC.

Please see individual patch for details.

The bpftool support will be posted in follow-up patches.
