Xu Kuohai f9db3a3822 selftests/bpf/benchs: Add overwrite mode benchmark for BPF ring buffer
Add --rb-overwrite option to benchmark BPF ring buffer in overwrite mode.
Since overwrite mode is not yet supported by libbpf for consumer, also add
--rb-bench-producer option to benchmark producer directly without a consumer.

Benchmarks on an x86_64 and an arm64 CPU are shown below for reference.

- AMD EPYC 9654 (x86_64)

Ringbuf, multi-producer contention in overwrite mode, no consumer

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.
