Daniel Rosenberg 3bda08b636 bpf: Allow NULL buffers in bpf_dynptr_slice(_rw)
bpf_dynptr_slice(_rw) uses a user provided buffer if it can not provide
a pointer to a block of contiguous memory. This buffer is unused in the
case of local dynptrs, and may be unused in other cases as well. There
is no need to require the buffer, as the kfunc can just return NULL if
it was needed and not provided.

This adds another kfunc annotation, __opt, which combines with __sz and
__szk to allow the buffer associated with the size to be NULL. If the
buffer is NULL, the verifier does not check that the buffer is of
sufficient size.

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.
