Andrii Nakryiko c7dcb6c9aa selftests/bpf: mark dynptr kfuncs __weak to make them optional on old kernels
Mark dynptr kfuncs as __weak to allow
verifier_global_subprogs/arg_ctx_{perf,kprobe,raw_tp} subtests to be
loadable on old kernels. Because bpf_dynptr_from_xdp() kfunc is used
from arg_tag_dynptr BPF program in progs/verifier_global_subprogs.c
*and* is not marked as __weak, loading any subtest from
verifier_global_subprogs fails on old kernels that don't have
bpf_dynptr_from_xdp() kfunc defined. Even if arg_tag_dynptr program
itself is not loaded, libbpf bails out on non-weak reference to
bpf_dynptr_from_xdp (that can't be resolved), which shared across all
programs in progs/verifier_global_subprogs.c.

So mark all dynptr-related kfuncs as __weak to unblock libbpf CI ([0]).
In the upcoming "kfunc in vmlinux.h" work we should make sure that
kfuncs are always declared __weak 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.
