[GIT PULL] probes: Updates for v7.3

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Hi Linus,

Probes updates for v7.3:

- probes: Advanced BTF typecasting and variable fetch enhancements
  . Typecast support across probe events: Extended BTF typecasting syntax
    (e.g., (STRUCT)PARAM->MEMBER) to kprobes, uprobes, and fprobes on
    function entry and return.
  . Nested typecasts: Added support for chaining and nesting typecasts up
    to 3 levels, including casting registers and stack variables.
  . Field specifier option: Added (STRUCT,FIELD) syntax to emulate
    container_of(), allowing retrieval of parent structures from member
    pointers.
  . $current variable support: Introduced $current special variable to
    access the running task_struct via BTF dereferencing.
  . Per-CPU variable access: Added this_cpu_read() and this_cpu_ptr()
    fetcharg methods to trace CPU-local data safely.
  . Fetcharg bytecode dumper: Added CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_DUMP_FETCHARG to
    dump the compiled fetcharg bytecode instructions as comments in
    dynamic_events.
  . Extended symbol name handling: Removed the MAX_COMMON_HEAD_LEN limit
    and extended MAX_ARGSTR_LEN to 256 bytes, enabling probing of long
    symbols, mangled Rust symbols and complex BTF expressions.
  . eprobe variable syntax: Allowed eprobes to reference event fields
    directly without requiring a '$' prefix.
  . Cleanup unused parameters, redundant codes, duplicate macros and
    pointer arithmetic.
  . Use a ternary operator for simplifying fetch_type_from_btf_type().

- bootconfig / boottime-trace: Expanded dynamic probe support
  . Added boot-time tracing configuration support for event probes
    (eprobes), function probes (fprobes), and tracepoint probes
    (tprobes).
  . ftrace2bootconfig: Allowed comment lines ('#') in dynamic_events file.

- fprobe / kprobe: Optimization, robustness, and cleanups
  . fprobe: Simplified fprobe_remove_ips() by reusing graph and ftrace
    helpers.
  . fprobe: Removed __packed attribute from struct __fprobe_header to avoid
    unaligned memory access penalties on RISC architectures.
  . kprobe & fprobe: Removed redundant memset() calls in perf event probe
    handlers.
  . kprobes: Replaced legacy __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in header
    files.

- selftests & refactoring:
  . Refactored parse_probe_arg() and parse_probe_vars(), and eliminated
    recursion in probe argument parsing to protect kernel stack depth.
  . Added selftests for BTF typecasts and module probing without module
    prefixes.
  . Forced LC_ALL=C in ftracetest to prevent test failures on localized
    systems.
  . Refactored btf_type_skip_modifiers() to remove ignored id parameter.
  . Sorted ERRORS list in trace_probe.h alphabetically.
  . Fixed typo in fprobe docs, and trace_fprobe function name.
  . Renamed FETCH_OP_DATA to FETCH_OP_IMMSTR.
  . Made file offset error message probe-agnostic.
