But we do have 'is_kfunc_arg_mem_size()' that checks for __sz suffix,
e.g. used for bpf_copy_from_user_str():

/**
 * bpf_copy_from_user_str() - Copy a string from an unsafe user address
 * @dst:             Destination address, in kernel space.  This buffer must be
 *                   at least @dst__sz bytes long.
 * @dst__sz:         Maximum number of bytes to copy, includes the trailing NUL.
 * ...
 */
__bpf_kfunc int bpf_copy_from_user_str(void *dst, u32 dst__sz, const void __user *unsafe_ptr__ign, u64 flags)

However, this suffix won't work for strnstr because of the arguments order.
