Currently the BPF selftests in fails to compile due to use of test helpers that were not backported, namely: - netlink_helpers.h - __xlated()
The 1st patch adds netlink helper files, and the 2nd patch removes the use of __xlated() helper.
Note this series simply fix the compilation failure. Even with this series is applied the BPF selftests fails to run to completion due to kernel panic in the dummy_st_ops tests.
Changes since v2 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241217072821.43545-1-shung-hsi.yu@suse.com: - minor reword of patch 2, dropping the "downstream patch" line and add a Fixes tag
Changes since v1 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241126072137.823699-1-shung-hsi.yu@suse.com: - drop dependencies of __xlated() helper, and opt to remove its use instead.
