Daniel Borkmann c04167ce2c ebpf: add helper for obtaining current processor id
This patch adds the possibility to obtain raw_smp_processor_id() in
eBPF. Currently, this is only possible in classic BPF where commit
da2033c282 ("filter: add SKF_AD_RXHASH and SKF_AD_CPU") has added
facilities for this.

Perhaps most importantly, this would also allow us to track per CPU
statistics with eBPF maps, or to implement a poor-man's per CPU data
structure through eBPF maps.

Example function proto-type looks like:

  u32 (*smp_processor_id)(void) = (void *)BPF_FUNC_get_smp_processor_id;

Daniel Borkmann 03e69b508b ebpf: add prandom helper for packet sampling
This work is similar to commit 4cd3675ebf ("filter: added BPF
random opcode") and adds a possibility for packet sampling in eBPF.

Currently, this is only possible in classic BPF and useful to
combine sampling with f.e. packet sockets, possible also with tc.

Example function proto-type looks like:

  u32 (*prandom_u32)(void) = (void *)BPF_FUNC_get_prandom_u32;

Daniel Borkmann a2c83fff58 ebpf: constify various function pointer structs
We can move bpf_map_ops and bpf_verifier_ops and other structs into ro
section, bpf_map_type_list and bpf_prog_type_list into read mostly.
