[ Upstream commit a89fac57b5d080771efd4d71feaae19877cf68f0 ]

Lockdep warns about false positive:

[ 12.492696] but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock in the past:
[ 12.493275] (&rq->lock){-.-.}
[ 12.493276]
[ 12.493276]
[ 12.493276] and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

It has been explained that is a false positive here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/25/756
Recap:
- stackmap uses pcpu_freelist
- The lock in pcpu_freelist is a percpu lock
- stackmap is only used by tracing bpf_prog
- A tracing bpf_prog cannot be run if another bpf_prog
has already been running (ensured by the percpu bpf_prog_active counter).

Eric pointed out that this lockdep splats stops other
legit lockdep splats in selftests/bpf/test_progs.c.

Fix this by calling local_irq_save/restore for stackmap.

Another false positive had also been worked around by calling
local_irq_save in commit 89ad2fa3f043 ("bpf: fix lockdep splat").
That commit added unnecessary irq_save/restore to fast path of
bpf hash map. irqs are already disabled at that point, since htab
is holding per bucket spin_lock with irqsave.

Let's reduce overhead for htab by introducing __pcpu_freelist_push/pop
function w/o irqsave and convert pcpu_freelist_push/pop to irqsave
to be used elsewhere (right now only in stackmap).
It stops lockdep false positive in stackmap with a bit of acceptable overhead.

Fixes: 557c0c6e7df8 ("bpf: convert stackmap to pre-allocation")
