Subject: [PATCH net-next 14/24] net: Add a lock which held during the redirect process.

The XDP redirect process is two staged:
- bpf_prog_run_xdp() is invoked to run a eBPF program which inspects the
  packet and makes decisions. While doing that, the per-CPU variable
  bpf_redirect_info is used.

- Afterwards xdp_do_redirect() is invoked and accesses bpf_redirect_info
  and it may also access other per-CPU variables like xskmap_flush_list.

At the very end of the NAPI callback, xdp_do_flush() is invoked which
does not access bpf_redirect_info but will touch the individual per-CPU
lists.

The per-CPU variables are only used in the NAPI callback hence disabling
bottom halves is the only protection mechanism. Users from preemptible
context (like cpu_map_kthread_run()) explicitly disable bottom halves
for protections reasons.
Without locking in local_bh_disable() on PREEMPT_RT this data structure
requires explicit locking.

Introduce redirect_lock as a lock to be acquired when access to these
per-CPU variables is performed. Usually the lock is part of the per-CPU
variable which is about to be protected but since there are a few
different per-CPU variables which need to be protected at the same
time (and some of the variables depend on a CONFIG setting) a new
per-CPU data structure with variable bpf_run_lock is used for this.

The lock is a nested-BH lock meaning that on non-PREEMPT_RT kernels this
simply results in a lockdep check and ensuring that bottom halves are
disabled. On PREEMPT_RT kernels this will provide the needed
synchronisation once local_bh_disable() does not act as per-CPU lock.

This patch introduces the bpf_run_lock.redirect_lock lock. It will be
used by drivers in the following patches.

A follow-up step could be to keep bpf_prog_run_xdp() and the
XDP_REDIRECT switch case (with xdp_do_redirect()) close together. That
would allow a single scoped_guard() macro to cover the two required
instaces that require locking instead the whole switch case.
