selftests/bpf: Test rhtab kptr cancellation semanticsgrafted
Resizable hash-map updates and deletions must not perform full special-field destruction in their caller context. In particular, a referenced kptr must remain attached to the allocation until the memory allocator destructor can release it safely. Add separate coverage for both affected paths. The update test stores a task kptr, replaces the ordinary value bytes with BPF_EXIST, and verifies that the kptr survived. The delete test removes an element and exchanges its kptr through the still-valid map-value pointer before the allocation is reclaimed. Both cases observe a NULL kptr when rhtab uses bpf_obj_free_fields(). They recover and release the reference after rhtab switches to cancellation semantics.

+ * -------
+ *
+ * Adds functionality to livepatch-shadow-mod's in-flight data
+ * structures through a shadow variable. The livepatch patches a
+ * routine that periodically inspects data structures, incrementing a

+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * -----
+ *
+ * This module is not intended to be standalone. See the "Usage"
