As we discussed in the earlier thread, let's tweak/rename/move the
security_bpf_prog_alloc() call down to just before the bpf_check() call
so it looks something like this:

  err = security_bpf_prog_load(prog, &attr, token);
  if (err)
    goto proper_jump_label;
  
  err = bpf_check(...);

With the idea being that LSMs which implement the token hooks would
skip any BPF_PROG_LOAD access controls in security_bpf() and instead
implement them in security_bpf_prog_load().

We should also do something similar for map_create() and
security_bpf_map_alloc() in patch 4/13.
