bpf, xdp: drop rcu_read_lock from bpf_prog_run_xdp and move to caller
After 326fe02d1ed6 ("net/mlx4_en: protect ring->xdp_prog with rcu_read_lock"), the rcu_read_lock() in bpf_prog_run_xdp() is superfluous, since callers need to hold rcu_read_lock() already to make sure BPF program doesn't get released in the background. Thus, drop it from bpf_prog_run_xdp(), as it can otherwise be misleading. Still keeping the bpf_prog_run_xdp() is useful as it allows for grepping in XDP supported drivers and to keep the typecheck on the context intact. For mlx4, this means we don't have a double rcu_read_lock() anymore. nfp can just make use of bpf_prog_run_xdp(), too. For qede, just move rcu_read_lock() out of the helper. When the driver gets atomic replace support, this will move to call-sites eventually. mlx5 needs actual fixing as it has the same issue as described already in 326fe02d1ed6 ("net/mlx4_en: protect ring->xdp_prog with rcu_read_lock"), that is, we're under RCU bh at this time, BPF programs are released via call_rcu(), and call_rcu() != call_rcu_bh(), so we need to properly mark read side as programs can get xchg()'ed in mlx5e_xdp_set() without queue reset.
