nfp: bpf: record offload neutral maps in the driver
For asynchronous events originating from the device, like perf event output, we need to be able to make sure that objects being referred to by the FW message are valid on the host. FW events can get queued and reordered. Even if we had a FW message "barrier" we should still protect ourselves from bogus FW output. Add a reverse-mapping hash table and record in it all raw map pointers FW may refer to. Only record neutral maps, i.e. perf event arrays. These are currently the only objects FW can refer to. Use RCU protection on the read side, update side is under RTNL. Since program vs map destruction order is slightly painful for offload simply take an extra reference on all the recorded maps to make sure they don't disappear.
