bpf: Change syscall_nr type to int in struct syscall_tp_t

linux-rt-devel tree contains a patch (b1773eac3f29c ("sched: Add support
for lazy preemption")) that adds an extra member to struct trace_entry.
This causes the offset of args field in struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter
be different from the one in struct syscall_trace_enter:

struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter {
struct trace_entry ent; /* 0 12 */

/* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

long int id; /* 16 8 */
long unsigned int args[6]; /* 24 48 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
char __data[]; /* 72 0 */

/* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 4 */
/* sum members: 68, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};

struct syscall_trace_enter {
struct trace_entry ent; /* 0 12 */

/* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */

int nr; /* 12 4 */
long unsigned int args[]; /* 16 0 */

/* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};

This, in turn, causes perf_event_set_bpf_prog() fail while running bpf
test_profiler testcase because max_ctx_offset is calculated based on the
former struct, while off on the latter:

10488 if (is_tracepoint || is_syscall_tp) {
10489 int off = trace_event_get_offsets(event->tp_event);
10490
10491 if (prog->aux->max_ctx_offset > off)
10492 return -EACCES;
10493 }

What bpf program is actually getting is a pointer to struct
syscall_tp_t, defined in kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c. This patch fixes
the problem by aligning struct syscall_tp_t with struct
syscall_trace_(enter|exit) and changing the tests to use these structs
to dereference context.

selftests/bpf: Fix vmlinux test on s390x

Use a syscall macro to access the nanosleep()'s first argument;
currently the code uses gprs[2] instead of orig_gpr2.

selftests/bpf: Fix test_vmlinux test to use bpf_probe_read_user()

The test is reading UAPI kernel structure from user-space. So it doesn't need
CO-RE relocations and has to use bpf_probe_read_user().

selftests/bpf: Switch test_vmlinux to use hrtimer_range_start_ns.

The test_vmlinux test uses hrtimer_nanosleep as hook to test tracing
programs. But in a kernel built by clang, which performs more aggresive
inlining, that function gets inlined into its caller SyS_nanosleep.
Therefore, even though fentry and kprobe do hook on the function,
they aren't triggered by the call to nanosleep in the test.

A possible fix is switching to use a function that is less likely to
be inlined, such as hrtimer_range_start_ns. The EXPORT_SYMBOL functions
shouldn't be inlined based on the description of [1], therefore safe
to use for this test. Also the arguments of this function include the
duration of sleep, therefore suitable for test verification.

[1] af3b56289be1 time: don't inline EXPORT_SYMBOL functions

Tested:
In a clang build kernel, before this change, the test fails:

test_vmlinux:PASS:skel_open 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:skel_attach 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:tp 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:raw_tp 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:tp_btf 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:FAIL:kprobe not called
test_vmlinux:FAIL:fentry not called

After switching to hrtimer_range_start_ns, the test passes:

test_vmlinux:PASS:skel_open 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:skel_attach 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:tp 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:raw_tp 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:tp_btf 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:kprobe 0 nsec
test_vmlinux:PASS:fentry 0 nsec

selftests/bpf: Add vmlinux.h selftest exercising tracing of syscalls

Add vmlinux.h generation to selftest/bpf's Makefile. Use it from newly added
test_vmlinux to trace nanosleep syscall using 5 different types of programs:
- tracepoint;
- raw tracepoint;
- raw tracepoint w/ direct memory reads (tp_btf);
- kprobe;
- fentry.

These programs are realistic variants of real-life tracing programs,
excercising vmlinux.h's usage with tracing applications.
