Andrey Ignatov da70314917 bpf: Document BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL
Add documentation for BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL, including general
info, attach type, context, return code, helpers, example and usage
considerations.

A separate file prog_cgroup_sysctl.rst is added to Documentation/bpf/.

In the future more program types can be documented in their own
prog_<name>.rst files.

Another way to place program type specific documentation would be to
group program types somehow (e.g. cgroup.rst for all cgroup-bpf
programs), but it may not scale well since some program types may belong
to different groups, e.g. BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB can be documented
together with either cgroup-bpf programs or programs that access skb.

The new file is added to the index and verified by `make htmldocs` /
sanity-check by lynx.

README

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.
