The oops can also be reproduced with the following steps:
  ./vmtest.sh -s
  # at qemu shell
  cd /root/bpf && while true; do ./test_progs -t send_signal

Further analysis showed that the failure is introduced with
commit b89fbfbb ("bpf: Implement minimal BPF perf link").
With the above commit, the following scenario becomes possible:
    cpu1                        cpu2
                                hrtimer_interrupt -> bpf_overflow_handler
    (due to closing link_fd)
    bpf_perf_link_release ->
    perf_event_free_bpf_prog ->
    perf_event_free_bpf_handler ->
      WRITE_ONCE(event->overflow_handler, event->orig_overflow_handler)
      event->prog = NULL
                                bpf_prog_run(event->prog, &ctx)

In the above case, the event->prog is NULL for bpf_prog_run, hence
causing oops.

To fix the issue, check whether event->prog is NULL or not. If it
is, do not call bpf_prog_run. This seems working as the above
reproducible step runs more than one hour and I didn't see any
failures.
