+2.2.1 __k Annotation
+--------------------
+
+This annotation is only understood for scalar arguments, where it indicates that
+the verifier must check the scalar argument to be a known constant, which does
+not indicate a size parameter.
+
+An example is given below::
+
+ void *bpf_obj_new(u32 local_type_id__k, ...)
+ {
+ ...
+ }
+
+Here, bpf_obj_new uses local_type_id argument to find out the size of that type
+ID in program's BTF and return a sized pointer to it. Each type ID will have a
+distinct size, hence it is crucial to treat each such call as distinct when
+values don't match.
+
+Hence, whenever a constant scalar argument is accepted by a kfunc which is not a
+size parameter, __k suffix should be used.

Allow passing known constant scalars as arguments to kfuncs that do not represent a size parameter. This makes the search pruning optimization of verifier more conservative for such kfunc calls, and each non-distinct argument is considered unequivalent. We will use this support to then expose a bpf_obj_new function where it takes the local type ID of a type in program BTF, and returns a PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC to the local type, and allows programs to allocate their own objects.
