selftests/bpf: Test racing between bpf_timer_cancel_and_free and bpf_timer_cancel

This selftest is based on a Alexei's test adopted from an internal
user to troubleshoot another bug. During this exercise, a separate
racing bug was discovered between bpf_timer_cancel_and_free
and bpf_timer_cancel. The details can be found in the previous
patch.

This patch is to add a selftest that can trigger the bug.
I can trigger the UAF everytime in my qemu setup with KASAN. The idea
is to have multiple user space threads running in a tight loop to exercise
both bpf_map_update_elem (which calls into bpf_timer_cancel_and_free)
and bpf_timer_cancel.

selftests/bpf: Test pinning bpf timer to a core

Now that we support pinning a BPF timer to the current core, we should
test it with some selftests. This patch adds two new testcases to the
timer suite, which verifies that a BPF timer both with and without
BPF_F_TIMER_ABS, can be pinned to the calling core with BPF_F_TIMER_CPU_PIN.

selftests/bpf: Add absolute timer test

Add test for the absolute BPF timer under the existing timer tests. This
will run the timer two times with 1us expiration time, and then re-arm
the timer at ~35s in the future. At the end, it is verified that the
absolute timer expired exactly two times.

selftests/bpf: Use BPF_PROG2 for some fentry programs without struct arguments

Use BPF_PROG2 instead of BPF_PROG for programs in progs/timer.c
to test BPF_PROG2 for cases without struct arguments.

bpf: Optimize call_rcu in non-preallocated hash map.

Doing call_rcu() million times a second becomes a bottle neck.
Convert non-preallocated hash map from call_rcu to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.
The rcu critical section is no longer observed for one htab element
which makes non-preallocated hash map behave just like preallocated hash map.
The map elements are released back to kernel memory after observing
rcu critical section.
This improves 'map_perf_test 4' performance from 100k events per second
to 250k events per second.

bpf_mem_alloc + percpu_counter + typesafe_by_rcu provide 10x performance
boost to non-preallocated hash map and make it within few % of preallocated map
while consuming fraction of memory.

# 3540f7c6 14-Jul-2021 Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

selftests/bpf: Add bpf_timer test.

Add bpf_timer test that creates timers in preallocated and
non-preallocated hash, in array and in lru maps.
Let array timer expire once and then re-arm it for 35 seconds.
Arm lru timer into the same callback.
Then arm and re-arm hash timers 10 times each.
At the last invocation of prealloc hash timer cancel the array timer.
Force timer free via LRU eviction and direct bpf_map_delete_elem.
