bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bpf_get_local_storage() helper

Jiri Olsa reported a bug ([1]) in kernel where cgroup local
storage pointer may be NULL in bpf_get_local_storage() helper.
There are two issues uncovered by this bug:
  (1). kprobe or tracepoint prog incorrectly sets cgroup local storage
       before prog run,
  (2). due to change from preempt_disable to migrate_disable,
       preemption is possible and percpu storage might be overwritten
       by other tasks.

This issue (1) is fixed in [2]. This patch tried to address issue (2).
The following shows how things can go wrong:
  task 1:   bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for percpu local storage
         preemption happens
  task 2:   bpf_cgroup_storage_set() for percpu local storage
         preemption happens
  task 1:   run bpf program

task 1 will effectively use the percpu local storage setting by task 2
which will be either NULL or incorrect ones.

Instead of just one common local storage per cpu, this patch fixed
the issue by permitting 8 local storages per cpu and each local
storage is identified by a task_struct pointer. This way, we
allow at most 8 nested preemption between bpf_cgroup_storage_set()
and bpf_cgroup_storage_unset(). The percpu local storage slot
is released (calling bpf_cgroup_storage_unset()) by the same task
after bpf program finished running.
bpf_test_run() is also fixed to use the new bpf_cgroup_storage_set()
interface.

The patch is tested on top of [2] with reproducer in [1].
Without this patch, kernel will emit error in 2-3 minutes.
With this patch, after one hour, still no error.
