Introduce support for defining flags for kfuncs using a new set of macros, BTF_SET8_START/BTF_SET8_END, which define a set which contains 8 byte elements (each of which consists of a pair of BTF ID and flags), using a new BTF_ID_FLAGS macro. This will be used to tag kfuncs registered for a certain program type as acquire, release, sleepable, ret_null, etc. without having to create more and more sets which was proving to be an unscalable solution. Now, when looking up whether a kfunc is allowed for a certain program, we can also obtain its kfunc flags in the same call and avoid further lookups. The resolve_btfids change is split into a separate patch.

README
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.
