Song Liu e4378f0cb9 perf bpf: Save bpf_prog_info in a rbtree in perf_env
bpf_prog_info contains information necessary to annotate bpf programs.

This patch saves bpf_prog_info for bpf programs loaded in the system.

Some big picture of the next few patches:

To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different
informations are needed:

    1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
    2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
    3) bpf_prog_info
    4) btf

Before this set, 1) and 2) in the list are already saved to perf.data
file. For BPF programs that are already loaded before perf run, 1) and 2)
are synthesized by perf_event__synthesize_bpf_events(). For short living
BPF programs, 1) and 2) are generated by kernel.

This set handles 3) and 4) from the list. Again, it is necessary to handle
existing BPF program and short living program separately.

This patch handles 3) for exising BPF programs while synthesizing 1) and
2) in perf_event__synthesize_bpf_events(). These data are stored in
perf_env. The next patch saves these data from perf_env to perf.data as
headers.

Similarly, the two patches after the next saves 4) of existing BPF
programs to perf_env and perf.data.

Another patch later will handle 3) and 4) for short living BPF programs
by monitoring 1) and 2) in a dedicate thread.

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.
