Vincent Li bf7a6a6705 bpftool: Add kernel.kptr_restrict hint for no instructions
From bpftool's github repository issue [0]: When a Linux distribution
has the kernel.kptr_restrict set to 2, bpftool prog dump jited returns
"no instructions returned". This message can be puzzling to bpftool
users who are not familiar with kernel BPF internals, so add a small
hint for bpftool users to check the kernel.kptr_restrict setting
similar to the DUMP_XLATED case. Outside of kernel.kptr_restrict, no
instructions could also be returned in case the JIT was disabled.

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 reStructuredText 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.
