Nit: that

Please explain how bpf_probe_write_user reads kernel memory ... ?!

... and while we're at it, also how they allow "kernel memory to be
altered without restriction". I've been pointing this false statement
out long ago.

This whole thing is still buggy as has been pointed out before by
Jann. For helpers like above and few others below, error conditions
must clear the buffer ...
