For arm64 64K page size, the xdp data size was set to be more than 64K
in one of previous patches. This will cause failure for bpf_dynptr_memset().
Since the failure of bpf_dynptr_memset() is expected with 64K page size,
return success.

I don't think I understand why the test fixed in patch 1 (e.g. test_probe_read_user_dynptr) can pass the bpf_xdp_pointer test on 0xffff. I thought the bpf_probe_read_user_str_dynptr will eventually call the __bpf_xdp_store_bytes which also does a bpf_xdp_pointer?

For example, for test_probe_read_user_dynptr, for function test_dynptr_probe_xdp(),
for this one:
   off = xdp_near_frag_end_offset();

the off = 64928. Note that xdp_near_frag_end_offset() return value depends page size.

__u32 xdp_near_frag_end_offset(void)
{
        const __u32 headroom = 256;
        const __u32 max_frag_size =  __PAGE_SIZE - headroom - sizeof(struct skb_shared_info);
/* 32 bytes before the approximate end of the fragment */
        return max_frag_size - 32;
}

The 'len' depends on 'test_len[i]' and test_len is
   __u32 test_len[7] = {0/* placeholder */, 0, 1, 2, 255, 256, 257};

In bpf_xdp_pointer, we have the following test

        if (unlikely(offset > 0xffff || len > 0xffff))
                return ERR_PTR(-EFAULT);

In this particular case, offset = 64928, len = {0, 1, 2, 255, 256, 257}, so
it won't return -EFAULT.

For this patch 3, test_dynptr_memset_xdp_chunks, eventually we reached here:

        for (write_off = 0; write_off < size; write_off += chunk_sz) {
                chunk_sz = min_t(u32, sizeof(buf), size - write_off);
                err = __bpf_dynptr_write(ptr, offset + write_off, buf, chunk_sz, 0);
                if (err)
                        return err;
        }

So the 'size' is 90000, chunk_sz is 256.
So 'offset + write_off' will be 0, 256, 512, ..., 65536
Once it reached 65536, 'offset > 0xffff' will become true since 0xffff = 65535.
and the -EFAULT will be returned.

+        if (data_sz >= PAGE_SIZE_64K)
+            err = 0;
          goto out;

        bpf_for(i, 0, max_chunks) {
          offset = i * sizeof(buf);
