Kirill Shutemov reported significant percpu memory consumption increase after
booting in 288-cpu VM ([1]) due to commit 41a5db8d8161 ("bpf: Add support for
non-fix-size percpu mem allocation"). The percpu memory consumption is
increased from 111MB to 969MB. The number is from /proc/meminfo.

I tried to reproduce the issue with my local VM which at most supports upto
255 cpus. With 252 cpus, without the above commit, the percpu memory
consumption immediately after boot is 57MB while with the above commit the
percpu memory consumption is 231MB.

This is not good since so far percpu memory from bpf memory allocator is not
widely used yet. Let us change pre-allocation in init stage to on-demand
allocation when verifier detects there is a need of percpu memory for bpf
program. With this change, percpu memory consumption after boot can be reduced
signicantly.

Changelog:
  v2 -> v3:
    - Use dedicated mutex lock (bpf_percpu_ma_lock)
  v1 -> v2:
    - Add proper Reported-and-tested-by tag.
    - Do a check of !bpf_global_percpu_ma_set before acquiring verifier_lock.

A dumb question here: do we need some memory barrier to guarantee the
memory order between bpf_global_percpu_ma_set and bpf_global_percpu_ma ?

We should be fine. There is a control dependence on '!err' for
'bpf_global_percpu_ma_set = true'.
