bpf: Fix a rcu_sched stall issue with bpf task/task_file iterator

Browse Source 
In our production system, we observed rcu stalls when
'bpftool prog` is running.

Note that `bpftool prog` actually calls a task_file bpf iterator
program to establish an association between prog/map/link/btf anon
files and processes.

In the case where the above rcu stall occured, we had a process
having 1587 tasks and each task having roughly 81305 files.
This implied 129 million bpf prog invocations. Unfortunwtely none of
these files are prog/map/link/btf files so bpf iterator/prog needs
to traverse all these files and not able to return to user space
since there are no seq_file buffer overflow.

This patch fixed the issue in bpf_seq_read() to limit the number
of visited objects. If the maximum number of visited objects is
reached, no more objects will be visited in the current syscall.
If there is nothing written in the seq_file buffer, -EAGAIN will
return to the user so user can try again.

The maximum number of visited objects is set at 1 million.
In our Intel Xeon D-2191 2.3GHZ 18-core server, bpf_seq_read()
visiting 1 million files takes around 0.18 seconds.

We did not use cond_resched() since for some iterators, e.g.,
netlink iterator, where rcu read_lock critical section spans between
consecutive seq_ops->next(), which makes impossible to do cond_resched()
in the key while loop of function bpf_seq_read().
