bpf: Enable task local storage for tracing programs
To access per-task data, BPF programs usually creates a hash table with pid as the key. This is not ideal because: 1. The user need to estimate the proper size of the hash table, which may be inaccurate; 2. Big hash tables are slow; 3. To clean up the data properly during task terminations, the user need to write extra logic. Task local storage overcomes these issues and offers a better option for these per-task data. Task local storage is only available to BPF_LSM. Now enable it for tracing programs. Unlike LSM programs, tracing programs can be called in IRQ contexts. Helpers that access task local storage are updated to use raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead of raw_spin_lock_bh(). Tracing programs can attach to functions on the task free path, e.g. exit_creds(). To avoid allocating task local storage after bpf_task_storage_free(). bpf_task_storage_get() is updated to not allocate new storage when the task is not refcounted (task->usage == 0).
