Subject: [RFC bpf-next v1 4/7] bpf: Clear packet pointers after changing packet data in kfuncs

bpf_xdp_pull_data() may change packet data and therefore packet pointers
need to be invalidated. Add bpf_xdp_pull_data() to the special kfunc
list instead of introducing a new KF_ flag until there are more kfuncs
changing packet data.
