After the previous patch, which added PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC type
map_key_value_types, the only difference between map_key_value_types and
mem_types sets is PTR_TO_BUF and PTR_TO_MEM, which are in the latter set
but not the former.
Helpers which expect ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY or ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE
already effectively expect a valid blob of arbitrary memory that isn't
necessarily explicitly associated with a map. When validating a
PTR_TO_MAP_{KEY,VALUE} arg, the verifier expects meta->map_ptr to have
already been set, either by an earlier ARG_CONST_MAP_PTR arg, or custom
logic like that in process_timer_func or process_kptr_func.
So let's get rid of map_key_value_types and just use mem_types for those
args.
This has the effect of adding PTR_TO_BUF and PTR_TO_MEM to the set of
compatible types for ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_KEY and ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE.
PTR_TO_BUF is used by various bpf_iter implementations to represent a
chunk of valid r/w memory in ctx args for iter prog.
PTR_TO_MEM is used by networking, tracing, and ringbuf helpers to
represent a chunk of valid memory. The PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC
type added in previous commit is specific to ringbuf helpers.
Presence or absence of MEM_ALLOC doesn't change the validity of using
PTR_TO_MEM as a map_{key,val} input.

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.
