Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), documentation, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Jonathan Corbet, "David S.

From: "Roy, UjjaL" <redacted>

After reading this document observed that for new users it is
hard to find an example of "extension" easily.

So, added a new heading for extensions for better readability.
Now, the new readers can easily identify "extension" examples.
Also, added one more example of filtering interface index.

 The above example code can be placed into a file (here called "foo"), and
 then be passed to the bpf_asm tool for generating opcodes, output that xt_bpf
 and cls_bpf understands and can directly be loaded with. Example with above
