Allocate a temporary cgroup storage to use for bpf program test runs.
Because the test program is not actually attached to a cgroup,
the storage is allocated manually just for the execution
of the bpf program.
If the program is executed multiple times, the storage is not zeroed
on each run, emulating multiple runs of the program, attached to
a real cgroup.

The only difference is that some operations are restricted:

When check_alu_op() handles a BPF_MOV64 between two registers,
it calls check_reg_arg(DST_OP) on the dst register, marking it
as unbounded. If the src and dst register are the same, this
marks the src as unbounded, which can lead to unexpected errors
for further checks that rely on bounds info. For example:
BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_2, 0),
BPF_MOV64_REG(BPF_REG_2, BPF_REG_2),
BPF_ALU64_REG(BPF_ADD, BPF_REG_1, BPF_REG_2),
BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_0, 0),
BPF_EXIT_INSN(),
Results in:
"math between ctx pointer and register with unbounded
min value is not allowed"
check_alu_op() now uses check_reg_arg(DST_OP_NO_MARK), and MOVs
that need to mark the dst register (MOVIMM, MOV32) do so.
Added a test case for MOV64 dst == src, and dst != src.

BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR.
The test attaches two programs to cgroup, runs TCP server and client in
the cgroup and checks that two operations are done properly on client
socket when user calls connect(2):
1. In BPF_CGROUP_INET6_CONNECT socket cookie is used as the key to write
new value in a map for client socket.
2. In BPF_CGROUP_SOCK_OPS (BPF_SOCK_OPS_TCP_CONNECT_CB callback) the
value written in "1." is found by socket cookie, since it's the same
socket, and updated.
Finally the test verifies the value in the map.

bpf_get_socket_cookie() helper can be used to identify skb that
correspond to the same socket.
Though socket cookie can be useful in many other use-cases where socket is
available in program context. Specifically BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR
and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS programs can benefit from it so that one of
them can augment a value in a map prepared earlier by other program for
the same socket.
The patch adds support to call bpf_get_socket_cookie() from
BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SOCK_ADDR and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS.
It doesn't introduce new helpers. Instead it reuses same helper name
bpf_get_socket_cookie() but adds support to this helper to accept
`struct bpf_sock_addr` and `struct bpf_sock_ops`.

This set is focused on improving the performance of perf events
reported from BPF offload. Perf events can now be received on
packet data queues, which significantly improves the performance
(from total of 0.5 Msps to 5Msps per core). To get to this
performance we need a fast path for control messages which will
operate on raw buffers and recycle them immediately.
Patch 5 replaces the map pointers for perf maps with map IDs.
We look the pointers up in a hashtable, anyway, to validate they
are correct, so there is no performance difference. Map IDs
have the advantage of being easier to understand for users in
case of errors (we no longer print raw pointers to the logs).
Last patch improves info messages about map offload.

FW can put constraints on map element size to maximize resource
use and efficiency. When user attempts offload of a map which
does not fit into those constraints an informational message is
printed to kernel logs to inform user about the reason offload
failed. Map offload does not have access to any advanced error
reporting like verifier log or extack. There is also currently
no way for us to nicely expose the FW capabilities to user
space. Given all those constraints we should make sure log
messages are as informative as possible. Improve them.

Skbprio (SKB Priority Queue) is a queueing discipline that prioritizes packets
according to their skb->priority field. Under congestion, already-enqueued lower
priority packets will be dropped to make space available for higher priority
packets. Skbprio was conceived as a solution for denial-of-service defenses that
need to route packets with different priorities as a means to overcome DoS
attacks.

*Drop Documentation/networking/sch_skbprio.txt doc file to move it to tc man

v3
*Drop max_limit parameter in struct skbprio_sched_data and instead use

*Reference qdisc_dev(sch)->tx_queue_len only once, during initialisation for
qdisc (previously being referenced every time qdisc changes).
*Move qdisc's detailed description from in-code to Documentation/networking.
*When qdisc is saturated, enqueue incoming packet first before dequeueing
lowest priority packet in queue - improves usage of call stack registers.
*Introduce and use overlimit stat to keep track of number of dropped packets.
v2
*Use skb->priority field rather than DS field. Rename queueing discipline as
SKB Priority Queue (previously Gatekeeper Priority Queue).
*Queueing discipline is made classful to expose Skbprio's internal priority
