bpf: mark a NULL kfunc argument precisegrafted
check_kfunc_arg() allows bpf_register_is_null() for nullable arguments w/o marking the underlying scalar register precise. Hence a checkpoint created on such a path would prune against arbitrary scalar value. Fixes: 3bda08b63670 ("bpf: Allow NULL buffers in bpf_dynptr_slice(_rw)") Signed-off-by: Eduard Zingerman <eddyz87@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260904-register-is-null-precise-fixes-v1-5-0f5a360ff15d@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

+===========================
+
+This flag controls whether unpopulated memory ranges are automatically
+hotplugged as system RAM.
+
+- ``0``: Unpopulated ranges are not hotplugged (default).
+- ``1``: Unpopulated ranges are automatically hotplugged.
+
+When enabled, the Xen balloon driver will add memory regions that are
+marked as unpopulated in the Xen memory map to the system as usable RAM.
+This allows for dynamic memory expansion in Xen guest domains.
+
+This option is only available when the kernel is built with
+``CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG`` enabled.
