Subject: [PATCH bpf] bpf: fix a rcu warning for bpffs map pretty-print

Running selftest
  ./btf_btf -p
the kernel had the following warning:

The related source code in kernel/bpf/hashtab.c:
  709 static int htab_map_get_next_key(struct bpf_map *map, void *key, void *next_key)
  710 {
  711         struct bpf_htab *htab = container_of(map, struct bpf_htab, map);
  712         struct hlist_nulls_head *head;
  713         struct htab_elem *l, *next_l;
  714         u32 hash, key_size;
  715         int i = 0;
  716
  717         WARN_ON_ONCE(!rcu_read_lock_held());

In kernel/bpf/inode.c, bpffs map pretty print calls map->ops->map_get_next_key()
without holding a rcu_read_lock(), hence causing the above warning.
To fix the issue, just surrounding map->ops->map_get_next_key() with rcu read lock.
