In the kernel fq qdisc implementation, it only needs to look at
the fields of the first node in a list but does not always
need to remove it from the list. It is more convenient to have
a peek kfunc for the list. It works similar to the bpf_rbtree_first().
This patch adds bpf_list_{front,back} kfunc. The verifier is changed
such that the kfunc returning "struct bpf_list_node *" will be
marked as non-owning. The exception is the KF_ACQUIRE kfunc. The
net effect is only the new bpf_list_{front,back} kfuncs will
have its return pointer marked as non-owning.

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.
