[PATCH bpf-next 1/8] bpf: move unprivileged checks into map_create() and bpf_prog_load()

[Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>]

Make each bpf() syscall command a bit more self-contained, making it
easier to further enhance it. We move sysctl_unprivileged_bpf_disabled
handling down to map_create() and bpf_prog_load(), two special commands
in this regard.
