bpf: avoid grabbing spin_locks of all cpus when no free elems

This patch use head->first in pcpu_freelist_head to check freelist
having free or not. If having, grab spin_lock, or check next cpu's
freelist.

Before patch: hash_map performance
./map_perf_test 1
0:hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1043397 events per sec
...
The average of the test results is around 1050000 events per sec.

hash_map the worst: no free
./run_bench_bpf_hashmap_full_update.sh
Setting up benchmark 'bpf-hashmap-ful-update'...
Benchmark 'bpf-hashmap-ful-update' started.
1:hash_map_full_perf 15687 events per sec
...
The average of the test results is around 16000 events per sec.

ftrace trace:
0)               |  htab_map_update_elem() {
0)               |      __pcpu_freelist_pop() {
0)               |        _raw_spin_lock()
0)               |        _raw_spin_unlock()
0)               |        ...
0) + 25.188 us   |      }
0) + 28.439 us   |  }

The test machine is 16C, trying to get spin_lock 17 times, in addition
to 16c, there is an extralist.

after patch: hash_map performance
./map_perf_test 1
0:hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1053298 events per sec
...
The average of the test results is around 1050000 events per sec.

hash_map worst: no free
./run_bench_bpf_hashmap_full_update.sh
Setting up benchmark 'bpf-hashmap-ful-update'...
Benchmark 'bpf-hashmap-ful-update' started.
1:hash_map_full_perf 555830 events per sec
...
The average of the test results is around 550000 events per sec.

ftrace trace:
0)               |  htab_map_update_elem() {
0)               |    alloc_htab_elem() {
0)   0.586 us    |      __pcpu_freelist_pop();
0)   0.945 us    |    }
0)   8.669 us    |  }

It can be seen that after adding this patch, the map performance is
almost not degraded, and when free=0, first check head->first instead of
directly acquiring spin_lock.
