Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/8] bpf: Follow up to RCU enforcement in the verifier.

From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@...nel.org>

The patch set is addressing a fallout from
commit 6fcd486b3a0a ("bpf: Refactor RCU enforcement in the verifier.")
It was too aggressive with PTR_UNTRUSTED marks.
Patches 1-6 are cleanup and adding verifier smartness to address real
use cases in bpf programs that broke with too aggressive PTR_UNTRUSTED.
The partial revert is done in patch 7 anyway.

Alexei Starovoitov (8):
  bpf: Invoke btf_struct_access() callback only for writes.
  bpf: Remove unused arguments from btf_struct_access().
  bpf: Refactor btf_nested_type_is_trusted().
  bpf: Teach verifier that certain helpers accept NULL pointer.
  bpf: Refactor NULL-ness check in check_reg_type().
  bpf: Allowlist few fields similar to __rcu tag.
  bpf: Undo strict enforcement for walking untagged fields.
  selftests/bpf: Add tracing tests for walking skb and req.
