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>

+Configuring Git
+===============
+
+This chapter describes maintainer level git configuration.
+
+Tagged branches used in pull requests (see
+Documentation/maintainer/pull-requests.rst) should be signed with the
+developers public GPG key. Signed tags can be created by passing
+``-u <key-id>`` to ``git tag``. However, since you would *usually* use the same
+key for the project, you can set it in the configuration and use the ``-s``
+flag. To set the default ``key-id`` use::
+
+ git config user.signingkey "keyname"
+
+Alternatively, edit your ``.git/config`` or ``~/.gitconfig`` file by hand::
+
+ [user]
+ name = Jane Developer
+ email = jd@domain.org
+ signingkey = jd@domain.org
+
+You may need to tell ``git`` to use ``gpg2``::
+
+ [gpg]
+ program = /path/to/gpg2
+
+You may also like to tell ``gpg`` which ``tty`` to use (add to your shell
+rc file)::
+
+ export GPG_TTY=$(tty)
