[patch V2 15/20] bpf: Provide recursion prevention helpers

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>]

The places which need to prevent the execution of trace type BPF programs
to prevent deadlocks on the hash bucket lock do this open coded.

Provide two inline functions, bpf_disable/enable_instrumentation() to
replace these open coded protection constructs.

Use migrate_disable/enable() instead of preempt_disable/enable() right away
so this works on RT enabled kernels. On a !RT kernel migrate_disable /
enable() are mapped to preempt_disable/enable().

These helpers use this_cpu_inc/dec() instead of __this_cpu_inc/dec() on an
RT enabled kernel because migrate disabled regions are preemptible and
preemption might hit in the middle of a RMW operation which can lead to
inconsistent state.

V2: New patch. Use this_cpu_inc/dec() as pointed out by Mathieu.
