Commit 13bbbfbea759 ("bpf: Add bpf_dynptr_read and bpf_dynptr_write")
added the bpf_dynptr_write() and bpf_dynptr_read() APIs.
However, it will be needed for some dynptr types to pass in flags as
well (e.g. when writing to a skb, the user may like to invalidate the
hash or recompute the checksum).
This patch adds a "u64 flags" arg to the bpf_dynptr_read() and
bpf_dynptr_write() APIs before their UAPI signature freezes where
we then cannot change them anymore with a 5.19.x released kernel.

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.
