====================
bpf: add bpf_probe_write_user helper & example

This patch series contains two patches that add support for a probe_write
helper to BPF programs. This allows them to manipulate user memory during
the course of tracing. The second patch in the series has an example that
uses it, in one the intended ways to divert execution.

Thanks to Alexei Starovoitov, and Daniel Borkmann for being patient, review, and
helping me get familiar with the code base. I've made changes based on their
recommendations.

This helper should be considered for experimental usage and debugging, so we
print a warning to dmesg when it is along with the command and pid when someone
tries to install a proglet that uses it. A follow-up patchset will contain a
mechanism to verify the safety of the probe beyond what was done by hand.
