Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi 1995edc5f9 bpf: Consolidate locks and reference state in verifier state
Currently, state for RCU read locks and preemption is in
bpf_verifier_state, while locks and pointer reference state remains in
bpf_func_state. There is no particular reason to keep the latter in
bpf_func_state. Additionally, it is copied into a new frame's state and
copied back to the caller frame's state everytime the verifier processes
a pseudo call instruction. This is a bit wasteful, given this state is
global for a given verification state / path.

Move all resource and reference related state in bpf_verifier_state
structure in this patch, in preparation for introducing new reference
state types in the future.

Since we switch print_verifier_state and friends to print using vstate,
we now need to explicitly pass in the verifier state from the caller
along with the bpf_func_state, so modify the prototype and callers to do
so. To ensure func state matches the verifier state when we're printing
data, take in frame number instead of bpf_func_state pointer instead and
avoid inconsistencies induced by the caller.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
