bpf: fix a rcu usage warning in bpf_prog_array_copy_core()
Commit 394e40a29788 ("bpf: extend bpf_prog_array to store pointers to the cgroup storage") refactored the bpf_prog_array_copy_core() to accommodate new structure bpf_prog_array_item which contains bpf_prog array itself. In the old code, we had perf_event_query_prog_array(): mutex_lock(...) bpf_prog_array_copy_call(): prog = rcu_dereference_check(array, 1)->progs bpf_prog_array_copy_core(prog, ...) mutex_unlock(...) With the above commit, we had perf_event_query_prog_array(): mutex_lock(...) bpf_prog_array_copy_call(): bpf_prog_array_copy_core(array, ...): item = rcu_dereference(array)->items; ... mutex_unlock(...) The new code will trigger a lockdep rcu checking warning. The fix is to change rcu_dereference() to rcu_dereference_check() to prevent such a warning.
