Subject: [PATCH net] bpf: improve read-only handling

Improve bpf_{prog,jit_binary}_{un,}lock_ro() by throwing a
one-time warning in case of an error when the image couldn't
be set read-only, and also mark struct bpf_prog as locked when
bpf_prog_lock_ro() was called.

Reason for the latter is that bpf_prog_unlock_ro() is called from
various places including error paths, and we shouldn't mess with
page attributes when really not needed.

For bpf_jit_binary_unlock_ro() this is not needed as jited flag
implicitly indicates this, thus for archs with ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY
we're guaranteed to have a previously locked image. Overall, this
should also help us to identify any further potential issues with
set_memory_*() helpers.

 ( My preference is on -net, so we can potentially find and fix
   any remaining unexpected issue with set_memory_*(). Thanks! )
