commit 86f44fcec22ce2979507742bc53db8400e454f46 upstream.
The verifier cannot perform sufficient validation of bpf_attr->test.ctx_in
pointer, therefore bpf programs should not be allowed to call BPF_PROG_RUN
command from within the program.
To fix this issue split bpf_sys_bpf() bpf helper into normal kern_sys_bpf()
kernel function that can only be used by the kernel light skeleton directly.

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.
