We can now undo parts of4b3786a6c5("bpf: Zero former ARG_PTR_TO_{LONG,INT} args in case of error") as discussed in [0]. Given the BPF helpers now have MEM_WRITE tag, the MEM_UNINIT can be cleared. The mtu_len is an input as well as output argument, meaning, the BPF program has to set it to something. It cannot be uninitialized. Therefore, allowing uninitialized memory and zeroing it on error would be odd. It was done as an interim step in4b3786a6c5as the desired behavior could not have been expressed before the introduction of MEM_WRITE tag.

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 reStructuredText 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.
