Changelog:
----------
v2 -> v3:
- Go back to the __bpf_kfunc approach from v1. The BPF_KFUNC macro
  received pushback as it didn't match the more typical EXPORT_SYMBOL*
  APIs used elsewhere in the kernel. It's the longer term plan, but for
  now we're proposing something less controversial to fix kfuncs and BTF
  encoding.
- Add __bpf_kfunc macro to newly added cpumask kfuncs.
- Add __bpf_kfunc macro to newly added XDP metadata kfuncs, which were
  failing to be BTF encoded in the thread in [2].
- Update patch description(s) to reference the discussions in [2].
- Add a selftest that validates that a static kfunc with unused args is
  properly BTF encoded and can be invoked.

v1 -> v2:
- Wrap entire function signature in BPF_KFUNC macro instead of using
  __bpf_kfunc tag (Kumar)
- Update all kfunc definitions to use this macro.
- Update kfuncs.rst documentation to describe and illustrate the macro.
- Also clean up a few small parts of kfuncs.rst, e.g. some grammar, and
  in general making it a bit tighter.

  bpf: Document usage of the new __bpf_kfunc macro
  bpf: Add __bpf_kfunc tag to all kfuncs
  selftests/bpf: Add testcase for static kfunc
