A BPF LSM program at times will introspect a mm_struct that is associated with a task_struct. In order to perform this reliably, we need introduce a new set of BPF kfuncs that have the ability to acquire and release references on a mm_struct. The following BPF kfuncs have been added in order to support this capability: struct mm_struct *bpf_task_mm_grab(struct task_struct *task); void bpf_mm_drop(struct mm_struct *mm); These newly added mm_struct based BPF kfuncs are simple wrappers around the mmgrab() and mmdrop() in-kernel helpers. Both mmgrab() and mmdrop() are used in favour of their somewhat similar counterparts mmget() and mmput() as they're considered to be the more lightweight variants in comparison i.e. they don't pin the associated address space.
