[PATCH bpf-next v8 4/4] selftests/bpf: Test PTR_MAYBE_NULL arguments of struct_ops operators.

[thinker.li@gmail.com]

From: Kui-Feng Lee <thinker.li@gmail.com>

Test if the verifier verifies nullable pointer arguments correctly for BPF
struct_ops programs.

"test_maybe_null" in struct bpf_testmod_ops is the operator defined for the
test cases here.

A BPF program should check a pointer for NULL beforehand to access the
value pointed by the nullable pointer arguments, or the verifier should
reject the programs. The test here includes two parts; the programs
checking pointers properly and the programs not checking pointers
beforehand. The test checks if the verifier accepts the programs checking
properly and rejects the programs not checking at all.
