Subject: CVE-2023-52521: bpf: Annotate bpf_long_memcpy with data_race

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Annotate bpf_long_memcpy with data_race

syzbot reported a data race splat between two processes trying to
update the same BPF map value via syscall on different CPUs:

  BUG: KCSAN: data-race in bpf_percpu_array_update / bpf_percpu_array_update

The bpf_long_memcpy is used with 8-byte aligned pointers, power-of-8 size
and forced to use long read/writes to try to atomically copy long counters.
It is best-effort only and no barriers are here since it _will_ race with
concurrent updates from BPF programs. The bpf_long_memcpy() is called from
bpf(2) syscall. Marco suggested that the best way to make this known to
KCSAN would be to use data_race() annotation.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52521 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
