Subject: [PATCH 5.14 114/172] bpf: Exempt CAP_BPF from checks against bpf_jit_limit

From: Lorenz Bauer <lmb@...udflare.com>

[ Upstream commit 8a98ae12fbefdb583a7696de719a1d57e5e940a2 ]

When introducing CAP_BPF, bpf_jit_charge_modmem() was not changed to treat
programs with CAP_BPF as privileged for the purpose of JIT memory allocation.
This means that a program without CAP_BPF can block a program with CAP_BPF
from loading a program.

Fix this by checking bpf_capable() in bpf_jit_charge_modmem().
