In v5.4-rc2 we added a new helper (cf. [1]) copy_struct_from_user(). This helper is intended for all codepaths that copy structs from userspace that are versioned by size. bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() does exactly what copy_struct_from_user() is doing. Note that copy_struct_from_user() is calling min() already. So technically, the min_t() call could go. But the info_len is used further below so leave it.
