Newly-added bpf_rbtree_{remove,first} kfuncs have some special properties
that require handling in the verifier:
* both bpf_rbtree_remove and bpf_rbtree_first return the type containing
the bpf_rb_node field, with the offset set to that field's offset,
instead of a struct bpf_rb_node *
* mark_reg_graph_node helper added in previous patch generalizes
this logic, use it
* bpf_rbtree_remove's node input is a node that's been inserted
in the tree - a non-owning reference.
* bpf_rbtree_remove must invalidate non-owning references in order to
avoid aliasing issue. Use previously-added
invalidate_non_owning_refs helper to mark this function as a
non-owning ref invalidation point.
* Unlike other functions, which convert one of their input arg regs to
non-owning reference, bpf_rbtree_first takes no arguments and just
returns a non-owning reference (possibly null)
* For now verifier logic for this is special-cased instead of
adding new kfunc flag.
This patch, along with the previous one, complete special verifier
handling for all rbtree API functions added in this series.
With functional verifier handling of rbtree_remove, under current
non-owning reference scheme, a node type with both bpf_{list,rb}_node
fields could cause the verifier to accept programs which remove such
nodes from collections they haven't been added to.
In order to prevent this, this patch adds a check to btf_parse_fields
which rejects structs with both bpf_{list,rb}_node fields. This is a
temporary measure that can be removed after "collection identity"
followup. See comment added in btf_parse_fields. A linked_list BTF test
exercising the new check is added in this patch as well.

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.
