Add a new kfunc int bpf_dynptr_adjust(struct bpf_dynptr_kern *ptr, u32 start, u32 end); which adjusts the dynptr to reflect the new [start, end) interval. In particular, it advances the offset of the dynptr by "start" bytes, and if end is less than the size of the dynptr, then this will trim the dynptr accordingly. Adjusting the dynptr interval may be useful in certain situations. For example, when hashing which takes in generic dynptrs, if the dynptr points to a struct but only a certain memory region inside the struct should be hashed, adjust can be used to narrow in on the specific region to hash.

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.
