bpf: Enable bpf_iter targets registering ctx argument types
Commit b121b341e598 ("bpf: Add PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL support") adds a field btf_id_or_null_non0_off to bpf_prog->aux structure to indicate that the first ctx argument is PTR_TO_BTF_ID reg_type and all others are PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL. This approach does not really scale if we have other different reg types in the future, e.g., a pointer to a buffer. This patch enables bpf_iter targets registering ctx argument reg types which may be different from the default one. For example, for pointers to structures, the default reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID for tracing program. The target can register a particular pointer type as PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL which can be used by the verifier to enforce accesses.
