[v4,2/3] Now that BPF supports adding new kernel functions with kfuncs, and storing kernel objects in maps with kptrs, we can add a set of kfuncs which allow struct task_struct objects to be stored in maps as referenced kptrs. The possible use cases for d

  In order to enable this, this patch adds three new kfuncs:

struct task_struct *bpf_task_acquire(struct task_struct *p);
struct task_struct *bpf_task_kptr_get(struct task_struct **pp);
void bpf_task_release(struct task_struct *p);

A follow-on patch will add selftests validating these kfuncs.

And somehow I managed to remove the commit title for this one. Sincere
apologies for the noise everyone. Hopefully I'll stop going off the
rails in v5.
