bpf: Relax KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs strict type matching constraint
Currently we cannot pass zero offset (implicit cast) or non-zero offset pointers to KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs. This is because KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs requires strict type matching, but zero offset or non-zero offset does not change the type of pointer, which causes the ebpf program to be rejected by the verifier. This can cause some problems, one example is that bpf_skb_peek_tail kfunc [0] cannot be implemented by just passing in non-zero offset pointers. We cannot pass pointers like &sk->sk_write_queue (non-zero offset) or &sk->__sk_common (zero offset) to KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs. This patch makes KF_ACQUIRE kfuncs not require strict type matching.
