[PATCH v2] perf/bpf: Don't call bpf_overflow_handler() for tracing events

[Joe Damato <jdamato@fastly.com>]

From: Kyle Huey <me@kylehuey.com>

The regressing commit is new in 6.10. It assumed that anytime event->prog
is set bpf_overflow_handler() should be invoked to execute the attached bpf
program. This assumption is false for tracing events, and as a result the
regressing commit broke bpftrace by invoking the bpf handler with garbage
inputs on overflow.

Prior to the regression the overflow handlers formed a chain (of length 0,
1, or 2) and perf_event_set_bpf_handler() (the !tracing case) added
bpf_overflow_handler() to that chain, while perf_event_attach_bpf_prog()
(the tracing case) did not. Both set event->prog. The chain of overflow
handlers was replaced by a single overflow handler slot and a fixed call to
bpf_overflow_handler() when appropriate. This modifies the condition there
to check event->prog->type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT, restoring the
previous behavior and fixing bpftrace.
