bpf_[sk|inode|task|cgrp]_storage_[get|delete]() and bpf_get_socket_cookie() helpers
perform run-time check that sk|inode|task|cgrp pointer != NULL.
Teach verifier about this fact and allow bpf programs to pass
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | PTR_MAYBE_NULL into such helpers.
It will be used in the subsequent patch that will do
bpf_sk_storage_get(.., skb->sk, ...);
Even when 'skb' pointer is trusted the 'sk' pointer may be NULL.

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.
