bpf: Adjust low/high watermarks in bpf_mem_cache
The same low/high watermarks for every bucket in bpf_mem_cache consume
significant amount of memory. Preallocating 64 elements of 4096 bytes each in
the free list is not efficient. Make low/high watermarks and batching value
dependent on element size. This change brings significant memory savings.

bpf: Optimize call_rcu in non-preallocated hash map.
Doing call_rcu() million times a second becomes a bottle neck.
Convert non-preallocated hash map from call_rcu to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.
The rcu critical section is no longer observed for one htab element
which makes non-preallocated hash map behave just like preallocated hash map.
The map elements are released back to kernel memory after observing
rcu critical section.
This improves 'map_perf_test 4' performance from 100k events per second
to 250k events per second.
bpf_mem_alloc + percpu_counter + typesafe_by_rcu provide 10x performance
boost to non-preallocated hash map and make it within few % of preallocated map
while consuming fraction of memory.

bpf: Introduce any context BPF specific memory allocator.
Tracing BPF programs can attach to kprobe and fentry. Hence they
run in unknown context where calling plain kmalloc() might not be safe.
Front-end kmalloc() with minimal per-cpu cache of free elements.
Refill this cache asynchronously from irq_work.
BPF programs always run with migration disabled.
It's safe to allocate from cache of the current cpu with irqs disabled.
Free-ing is always done into bucket of the current cpu as well.
irq_work trims extra free elements from buckets with kfree
and refills them with kmalloc, so global kmalloc logic takes care
of freeing objects allocated by one cpu and freed on another.
struct bpf_mem_alloc supports two modes:
- When size != 0 create kmem_cache and bpf_mem_cache for each cpu.
This is typical bpf hash map use case when all elements have equal size.
- When size == 0 allocate 11 bpf_mem_cache-s for each cpu, then rely on
kmalloc/kfree. Max allocation size is 4096 in this case.
This is bpf_dynptr and bpf_kptr use case.
bpf_mem_alloc/bpf_mem_free are bpf specific 'wrappers' of kmalloc/kfree.
bpf_mem_cache_alloc/bpf_mem_cache_free are 'wrappers' of kmem_cache_alloc/kmem_cache_free.
The allocators are NMI-safe from bpf programs only. They are not NMI-safe in general.
