The linked_list tests use macros and function pointers to reduce code
duplication. Earlier in the series, bpf_list_push_{front,back} were
modified to be macros, expanding to invoke actual kfuncs
bpf_list_push_{front,back}_impl. Due to this change, a code snippet
like:
void (*p)(void *, void *) = (void *)&bpf_list_##op;
p(hexpr, nexpr);
meant to do bpf_list_push_{front,back}(hexpr, nexpr), will no longer
work as it's no longer valid to do &bpf_list_push_{front,back} since
they're no longer functions.
This patch fixes issues of this type, along with two other minor changes
- one improvement and one fix - both related to the node argument to
list_push_{front,back}.
* The fix: migration of list_push tests away from (void *, void *)
func ptr uncovered that some tests were incorrectly passing pointer
to node, not pointer to struct bpf_list_node within the node. This
patch fixes such issues (CHECK(..., f) -> CHECK(..., &f->node))
* The improvement: In linked_list tests, the struct foo type has two
list_node fields: node and node2, at byte offsets 0 and 40 within
the struct, respectively. Currently node is used in ~all tests
involving struct foo and lists. The verifier needs to do some work
to account for the offset of bpf_list_node within the node type, so
using node2 instead of node exercises that logic more in the tests.
This patch migrates linked_list tests to use node2 instead of node.

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.
