This patch set consists of two changes:

 - a cleanup of arg_type, ret_type and reg_type which try to make those
   types composable. (patch 1/9 - patch 6/9)
 - a bug fix that prevents bpf programs from writing kernel memory.
   (patch 7/9 - patch 9/9)

The purpose of the cleanup is to find a scalable way to express type
nullness and read-onliness. This patchset introduces two flags that
can be applied on all three types: PTR_MAYBE_NULL and MEM_RDONLY.
Previous types such as ARG_XXX_OR_NULL can now be written as

 ARG_XXX | PTR_MAYBE_NULL

Similarly, PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF is now "PTR_TO_BUF | MEM_RDONLY".

Flags can be composed, as ARGs can be both MEM_RDONLY and MAYBE_NULL.

 ARG_PTR_TO_MEM | PTR_MAYBE_NULL | MEM_RDONLY

Based on this new composable types, patch 7/9 applies MEM_RDONLY on
PTR_TO_MEM, in order to tag the returned memory from per_cpu_ptr as
read-only. Therefore fixing a previous bug that one can leverage
per_cpu_ptr to modify kernel memory within BPF programs.

Patch 8/9 generalizes the use of MEM_RDONLY further by tagging a set of
helper arguments ARG_PTR_TO_MEM with MEM_RDONLY. Some helper functions
may override their arguments, such as bpf_d_path, bpf_snprintf. In this
patch, we narrow the ARG_PTR_TO_MEM to be compatible with only a subset
of memory types. This prevents these helpers from writing read-only
memories. For the helpers that do not write its arguments, we add tag
MEM_RDONLY to allow taking a RDONLY memory as argument.

Changes since RFC v2:

 - renamed BPF_BASE_TYPE to a more succinct name base_type and move its
   definition to bpf_verifier.h. Same for BPF_TYPE_FLAG. (Alexei)
 - made checking MEM_RDONLY in check_reg_type() universal (Alexei)
 - ran through majority of test_progs and fixed bugs in RFC v2:
   - fixed incorrect BPF_BASE_TYPE_MASK. The high bit of GENMASK should
     be BITS - 1, rather than BITS. patch 1/9.
   - fixed incorrect conditions when checking ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE in
     check_func_arg(). See patch 2/9.
   - fixed a bug where PTR_TO_BTF_ID may be combined with MEM_RDONLY,
     causing the check in check_mem_access() to fall through to the
     'else' branch. See check_helper_call() in patch 7/9.
 - fixed build failure on netronome driver. Entries in bpf_reg_type have
   been ordered. patch 4/9.
 - fixed build warnings of using '%d' to print base_type. patch 4/9
 - unify arg_type_may_be_null() and reg_type_may_be_null() into a single
   type_may_be_null().
