bpf: Use rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() in bpf memory allocator



The memory free logic in bpf memory allocator chains a RCU Tasks Trace
grace period and a normal RCU grace period one after the other, so it
can ensure that both sleepable and non-sleepable programs have finished.

With the introduction of rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp(),
__free_rcu_tasks_trace() can check whether or not a normal RCU grace
period has also passed after a RCU Tasks Trace grace period has passed.
If it is true, freeing these elements directly, else freeing through
call_rcu().
