Sorry about the late reply. I meant to write two modes: walking up and
walking down. And two sub-modes when walking down: pre-order and
post-order.

But it seems this is confusing. I'm going to use three modes in the
next version: UP, PRE and POST.

Besides, since this patch modifies the bpf_iter_link_info, and that
breaks the btf_dump selftest, I need to include the fix of the
selftest in this patch.

Same here. Will use 'three modes' in the next version.

Sounds good. Will do.

Sure, no problem. This is a path that is unlikely to hit.
