This work adds program tracking to prog array maps. This is needed such
that upon prog array updates/deletions we can fix up all programs which
make use of this tail call map. We add ops->map_poke_{un,}track()
helpers to maps to maintain the list of programs and ops->map_poke_run()
for triggering the actual update.
bpf_array_aux is extended to contain the list head and poke_mutex in
order to serialize program patching during updates/deletions.
bpf_free_used_maps() will untrack the program shortly before dropping
the reference to the map. For clearing out the prog array once all urefs
are dropped we need to use schedule_work() to have a sleepable context.
The prog_array_map_poke_run() is triggered during updates/deletions and
walks the maintained prog list. It checks in their poke_tabs whether the
map and key is matching and runs the actual bpf_arch_text_poke() for
patching in the nop or new jmp location. Depending on the type of update,
we use one of BPF_MOD_{NOP_TO_JUMP,JUMP_TO_NOP,JUMP_TO_JUMP}.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
