Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 1/3] bpf: xdp: Register generic_kfunc_set with XDP programs

Registering generic_kfunc_set with XDP programs enables some of the
newer BPF features inside XDP -- namely tree based data structures and
BPF exceptions.

The current motivation for this commit is to enable assertions inside
XDP bpf progs. Assertions are a standard and useful tool to encode
intent.
