bpf: Add hash of maps support
This patch adds hash of maps support (hashmap->bpf_map).
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS is added.
A map-in-map contains a pointer to another map and lets call
this pointer 'inner_map_ptr'.
Notes on deleting inner_map_ptr from a hash map:
1. For BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC map-in-map, when deleting
an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem itself will go through
a rcu grace period and the inner_map_ptr resides
in the htab_elem.
2. For pre-allocated htab_elem (!BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC),
when deleting an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem may
get reused immediately. This situation is similar
to the existing prealloc-ated use cases.
However, the bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() calls bpf_map_put() which calls
inner_map->ops->map_free(inner_map) which will go
through a rcu grace period (i.e. all bpf_map's map_free
currently goes through a rcu grace period). Hence,
the inner_map_ptr is still safe for the rcu reader side.
This patch also includes BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS to the
check_map_prealloc() in the verifier. preallocation is a
must for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT. Hence, even we don't expect
heavy updates to map-in-map, enforcing BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC for map-in-map
is impossible without disallowing BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT from using
map-in-map first.
