Lorenzo Bianconi ef69aa3a98 net: netfilter: Add kfuncs to set and change CT status
Introduce bpf_ct_set_status and bpf_ct_change_status kfunc helpers in
order to set nf_conn field of allocated entry or update nf_conn status
field of existing inserted entry. Use nf_ct_change_status_common to
share the permitted status field changes between netlink and BPF side
by refactoring ctnetlink_change_status.

It is required to introduce two kfuncs taking nf_conn___init and nf_conn
instead of sharing one because KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag causes strict type
checking. This would disallow passing nf_conn___init to kfunc taking
nf_conn, and vice versa. We cannot remove the KF_TRUSTED_ARGS flag as we
only want to accept refcounted pointers and not e.g. ct->master.

Hence, bpf_ct_set_* kfuncs are meant to be used on allocated CT, and
bpf_ct_change_* kfuncs are meant to be used on inserted or looked up
CT entry.

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.
