This has been enabled for unprivileged programs for only one kernel
release, hence the expected annoyances due to this move are low. Users
using ringbuf can stick to non-dynptr APIs. The actual use cases dynptr
is meant to serve may not make sense in unprivileged BPF programs.
Hence, gate these helpers behind CAP_BPF and limit use to privileged
BPF programs.

Fixes: bc34dee65a65 ("bpf: Dynptr support for ring buffers")
Fixes: 13bbbfbea759 ("bpf: Add bpf_dynptr_read and bpf_dynptr_write")
Fixes: 34d4ef5775f7 ("bpf: Add dynptr data slices")

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.
