As a bit of an addmitedly nitpick I just wonder if having the avail_bytes
passed through like this is much use anymore? For example,

+BPF_CALL_3(bpf_skb_set_tunnel_opt_dynptr, struct sk_buff *, skb,
+	   struct bpf_dynptr_kern *, ptr, u32, len)
+{
+	const u8 *from;
+	u32 avail;
+
-       if (!ptr->data)
-		return -EFAULT;
-       avail = bpf_dynptr_get_size(ptr)
+	from = bpf_dynptr_get_data(ptr, &avail);
+	if (unlikely(len > avail))
+		return -EINVAL;
+	return __bpf_skb_set_tunopt(skb, from, len);
+}
+

seems just about as compact to me and then drop the null check from the
helper so we have a bpf_dynptr_get_data(*ptr) that just does the
data+offset arithmatic. Then it could also be used in a few other
spots where that calculation seems common.

I find it easier to read at least and think the helper would get
more use, also land it in one of the .h files. And avoids bouncing
avail around.

Bit of a gripe but what do you think?
