BTF_TYPE_SAFE_TRUSTED(struct bpf_iter__task) in verifier.c wanted to
teach BPF verifier that bpf_iter__task -> task is a trusted ptr. But it
doesn't work well.
The reason is, bpf_iter__task -> task would go through btf_ctx_access()
which enforces the reg_type of 'task' is ctx_arg_info->reg_type, and in
task_iter.c, we actually explicitly declare that the
ctx_arg_info->reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL.
Actually we have a previous case like this[1] where PTR_TRUSTED is added to
the arg flag for map_iter.
This patch sets ctx_arg_info->reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL |
PTR_TRUSTED in task_reg_info.
Similarly, bpf_cgroup_reg_info -> cgroup is also PTR_TRUSTED since we are
under the protection of cgroup_mutex and we would check cgroup_is_dead()
in __cgroup_iter_seq_show().
This patch is to improve the user experience of the newly introduced
bpf_iter_css_task kfunc before hitting the mainline. The Fixes tag is
pointing to the commit introduced the bpf_iter_css_task kfunc.

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.
