Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 0/3] add support for writable bare tracepoint

Hi,

The patchset series supports writable context for bare tracepoint.

The main idea comes from patchset "writable contexts for bpf raw
tracepoints" [1], but it only supports normal tracepoint with
associated trace event under tracefs. Now we want to add a
bare tracepoint in VFS layer, and update file::f_mode for specific
files. The reason using bare tracepoint is that it doesn't form
a ABI and we can change it freely. So add support for it in BPF.

Any comments are welcome.

Change log:
v2:
  * rebase on bpf-next tree
  * address comments from Yonghong Song
  * rename bpf_testmode_test_writable_ctx::ret as early_ret to reflect
    its purpose better.

v1:
  * https://www.spinics.net/lists/bpf/msg46221.html
