Subject: [RFC PATCH] bpf: Add helpers to read useful task_struct members

For added security, the layout of some structures can be
randomized by enabling CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT. One
such structure is task_struct. To build BPF programs, we
use Clang which does not support this feature. So, if we
attempt to read a field of a structure with a randomized
layout within a BPF program, we do not get the expected
value because of incorrect offsets. To observe this, it
is not mandatory to have CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT
enabled because the structure annotations/members added
for this purpose are enough to cause this. So, all kernel
builds are affected.

For example, considering samples/bpf/offwaketime_kern.c,
if we try to print the values of pid and comm inside the
task_struct passed to waker() by adding the following
lines of code at the appropriate place

  char fmt[] = "waker(): p->pid = %u, p->comm = %s\n";
  bpf_trace_printk(fmt, sizeof(fmt), _(p->pid), _(p->comm));

it is seen that upon rebuilding and running this sample
followed by inspecting /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace,
the output looks like the following

                               _-----=> irqs-off
                              / _----=> need-resched
                             | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
                             || / _--=> preempt-depth
                             ||| /     delay

               | |       |   ||||       |         |
          <idle>-0     [007] d.s.  1883.443594: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
          <idle>-0     [018] d.s.  1883.453588: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =

          <idle>-0     [009] d.s.  1883.483586: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
          <idle>-0     [005] d.s.  1883.493583: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
          <idle>-0     [009] d.s.  1883.503583: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
          <idle>-0     [018] d.s.  1883.513578: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
 systemd-journal-3140  [003] d...  1883.627660: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
 systemd-journal-3140  [003] d...  1883.627704: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =
 systemd-journal-3140  [003] d...  1883.627723: 0x00000001: waker(): p->pid = 0, p->comm =

To avoid this, we add new BPF helpers that read the
correct values for some of the important task_struct
members such as pid, tgid, comm and flags which are
extensively used in BPF-based analysis tools such as
bcc. Since these helpers are built with GCC, they use
the correct offsets when referencing a member.
