====================
bpf: Enable IRQ after irq_work_raise() completes

From: Hou Tao <houtao1@huawei.com>

Hi,

The patchset aims to fix the problem that bpf_mem_alloc() may return
NULL unexpectedly when multiple bpf_mem_alloc() are invoked concurrently
under process context and there is still free memory available. The
problem was found when doing stress test for qp-trie but the same
problem also exists for bpf_obj_new() as demonstrated in patch #3.

As pointed out by Alexei, the patchset can only fix ENOMEM problem for
normal process context and can not fix the problem for irq-disabled
context or RT-enabled kernel.

Patch #1 fixes the race between unit_alloc() and unit_alloc(). Patch #2
fixes the race between unit_alloc() and unit_free(). And patch #3 adds
a selftest for the problem. The major change compared with v1 is using
local_irq_{save,restore)() pair to disable and enable preemption
instead of preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace pair. The main reason is to
prevent potential overhead from __preempt_schedule_notrace(). I also
run htab_mem benchmark and hash_map_perf on a 8-CPUs KVM VM to compare
the performance between local_irq_{save,restore} and
preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace(), but the results are similar as shown
below:

(1) use preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace()
