[PATCH bpf-next v4 0/3] bpf: prevent offloaded programs from running on host via tcx/netkit

[Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>]

Patch 1 fixes the reported bug [1]. Patch 2 fixes an old bug that was
already there. Patch 3 is a test that reproduces the bug in patch 2.

Patch 1 has no test here: the original report already has a reproducer,
and it needs netdevsim, which is not easy to do in a selftest.

An offloaded program runs on the NIC, so its bpf_func is set to
bpf_prog_warn_on_exec(). tcx, netkit and XDP run programs on the host, so
attaching an offloaded program to them hits the WARN on the first packet.
Patch 1 adds the check in bpf_mprog_attach(), the one place both tcx and
netkit go through. Patch 2 moves the XDP check into dev_xdp_install() so
the bpf_xdp_link_update() path is covered too.

v3 -> v4:
  - patch 2: also move the two device-bound checks, not just the offload
    one, so the link update path can't skip them (from the AI review on v3).
  - add patch 3, a selftest for the link update path.
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260425105942.223757-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev/

v2 -> v3:
  - Alexei said to do the check in one place instead of spreading it
    across attach paths. Put it in bpf_mprog_attach() for tcx/netkit and
    move the XDP check into dev_xdp_install(). Three patches became two.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260424104201.217604-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev/

v1 -> v2:
  - tcx/netkit: also reject offloaded progs in the link update callback,
    not just attach (from the AI review on v1).
  - add a patch for the same hole in bpf_xdp_link_update().
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20260423033609.252464-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev/
