bpf: Change bpf_mem_cache draining process.



The next patch will introduce cross-cpu llist access and existing
irq_work_sync() + drain_mem_cache() + rcu_barrier_tasks_trace() mechanism will
not be enough, since irq_work_sync() + drain_mem_cache() on cpu A won't
guarantee that llist on cpu A are empty. The free_bulk() on cpu B might add
objects back to llist of cpu A. Add 'bool draining' flag.
The modified sequence looks like:
for_each_cpu:
  WRITE_ONCE(c->draining, true); // do_call_rcu_ttrace() won't be doing call_rcu() any more
  irq_work_sync(); // wait for irq_work callback (free_bulk) to finish
  drain_mem_cache(); // free all objects
rcu_barrier_tasks_trace(); // wait for RCU callbacks to execute
