Yeah, it'd be great if the behavior for skb/xdp progs could be the
same, but I'm not seeing a better solution here (unless we invalidate
data slices on writes in xdp progs, just to make it match more :P).

Regarding having 2 different interfaces bpf_dynptr_from_{skb/xdp}, I'm
not convinced this is much of a problem - xdp and skb programs already
have different interfaces for doing things (eg
bpf_{skb/xdp}_{store/load}_bytes).

Ooh interesting, I hadn't previously taken a look at
try_match_pkt_pointers(), thanks for mentioning it :)

The cleanest solution to me is to add the flag "DYNPTR_TYPE_{SKB/XDP}"
to PTR_TO_PACKET and change reg_is_init_pkt_pointer() to return false
if the DYNPTR_TYPE_{SKB/XDP} flag is present. I prefer this over
returning PTR_TO_MEM because it seems more robust (eg if in the future
we reject x behavior on the packet data reg types, this will
automatically apply to the data slices), and because it'll keep the
logic more efficient/simpler for the case when the pkt pointer has to
be cleared after any helper that changes pkt data is called (aka the
case where the data slice gets invalidated).

What are your thoughts?
