bpf, xdp: drop rcu_read_lock from bpf_prog_run_xdp and move to caller
After 326fe02d1ed6 ("net/mlx4_en: protect ring->xdp_prog with rcu_read_lock"),
the rcu_read_lock() in bpf_prog_run_xdp() is superfluous, since callers
need to hold rcu_read_lock() already to make sure BPF program doesn't
get released in the background.
Thus, drop it from bpf_prog_run_xdp(), as it can otherwise be misleading.
Still keeping the bpf_prog_run_xdp() is useful as it allows for grepping
in XDP supported drivers and to keep the typecheck on the context intact.
For mlx4, this means we don't have a double rcu_read_lock() anymore. nfp can
just make use of bpf_prog_run_xdp(), too. For qede, just move rcu_read_lock()
out of the helper. When the driver gets atomic replace support, this will
move to call-sites eventually.
mlx5 needs actual fixing as it has the same issue as described already in
326fe02d1ed6 ("net/mlx4_en: protect ring->xdp_prog with rcu_read_lock"),
that is, we're under RCU bh at this time, BPF programs are released via
call_rcu(), and call_rcu() != call_rcu_bh(), so we need to properly mark
read side as programs can get xchg()'ed in mlx5e_xdp_set() without queue
reset.
