Hou Tao 4b7e7cd1c1 bpf: Disable migration before calling ops->map_free()
The freeing of all map elements may invoke bpf_obj_free_fields() to free
the special fields in the map value. Since these special fields may be
allocated from bpf memory allocator, migrate_{disable|enable} pairs are
necessary for the freeing of these special fields.

To simplify reasoning about when migrate_disable() is needed for the
freeing of these special fields, let the caller to guarantee migration
is disabled before invoking bpf_obj_free_fields(). Therefore, disabling
migration before calling ops->map_free() to simplify the freeing of map
values or special fields allocated from bpf memory allocator.

After disabling migration in bpf_map_free(), there is no need for
additional migration_{disable|enable} pairs in these ->map_free()
callbacks. Remove these redundant invocations.

The migrate_{disable|enable} pairs in the underlying implementation of
bpf_obj_free_fields() will be removed by the following patch.

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.
