[PATCH bpf-next 0/5] Implement task_local_storage

From: KP Singh <kpsingh@xxxxxxxxxx>

We already have socket and inode local storage since [1]

This patch series:

* Implements bpf_local_storage for task_struct.
* Implements the bpf_get_current_task_btf helper which returns a BTF
pointer to the current task. Not only is this generally cleaner
(reading from the task_struct currently requires BPF_CORE_READ), it
also allows the BTF pointer to be used in task_local_storage helpers.
* In order to implement this helper, a RET_PTR_TO_BTF_ID is introduced
which works similar to RET_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL but does not require
a nullness check.
* Implements a detection in selftests which uses the
task local storage to deny a running executable from unlinking itself.
