Kenny Yu b77fb25dcb bpf: Add support for bpf iterator programs to use sleepable helpers
This patch allows bpf iterator programs to use sleepable helpers by
changing `bpf_iter_run_prog` to use the appropriate synchronization.
With sleepable bpf iterator programs, we can no longer use
`rcu_read_lock()` and must use `rcu_read_lock_trace()` instead
to protect the bpf program.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
