Allow passing PTR_TO_CTX, if the kfunc expects a matching struct type, and punt to PTR_TO_MEM block if reg->type does not fall in one of PTR_TO_BTF_ID or PTR_TO_SOCK* types. This will be used by future commits to get access to XDP and TC PTR_TO_CTX, and pass various data (flags, l4proto, netns_id, etc.) encoded in opts struct passed as pointer to kfunc. For PTR_TO_MEM support, arguments are currently limited to pointer to scalar, or pointer to struct composed of scalars. This is done so that unsafe scenarios (like passing PTR_TO_MEM where PTR_TO_BTF_ID of in-kernel valid structure is expected, which may have pointers) are avoided. Since the argument checking happens basd on argument register type, it is not easy to ascertain what the expected type is. In the future, support for PTR_TO_MEM for kfunc can be extended to serve other usecases. The struct type whose pointer is passed in may have maximum nesting depth of 4, all recursively composed of scalars or struct with scalars. Future commits will add negative tests that check whether these restrictions imposed for kfunc arguments are duly rejected by BPF verifier or not.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
