Merge branch 'Add skb + xdp dynptrs'
Joanne Koong says: ==================== This patchset is the 2nd in the dynptr series. The 1st can be found here [0]. This patchset adds skb and xdp type dynptrs, which have two main benefits for packet parsing: * allowing operations on sizes that are not statically known at compile-time (eg variable-sized accesses). * more ergonomic and less brittle iteration through data (eg does not need manual if checking for being within bounds of data_end) When comparing the differences in runtime for packet parsing without dynptrs vs. with dynptrs, there is no noticeable difference. Patch 9 contains more details as well as examples of how to use skb and xdp dynptrs.
