This patch changes the bpf_sk_storage_*() to take ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID_SOCK_COMMON such that they will work with the pointer returned by the bpf_skc_to_*() helpers also. A micro benchmark has been done on a "cgroup_skb/egress" bpf program which does a bpf_sk_storage_get(). It was driven by netperf doing a 4096 connected UDP_STREAM test with 64bytes packet. The stats from "kernel.bpf_stats_enabled" shows no meaningful difference. The sk_storage_get_btf_proto, sk_storage_delete_btf_proto, btf_sk_storage_get_proto, and btf_sk_storage_delete_proto are no longer needed, so they are removed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
