bpf: Add map and need_defer parameters to .map_fd_put_ptr()
[ Upstream commit 20c20bd11a0702ce4dc9300c3da58acf551d9725 ]
map is the pointer of outer map, and need_defer needs some explanation.
need_defer tells the implementation to defer the reference release of
the passed element and ensure that the element is still alive before
the bpf program, which may manipulate it, exits.
The following three cases will invoke map_fd_put_ptr() and different
need_defer values will be passed to these callers:
1) release the reference of the old element in the map during map update
or map deletion. The release must be deferred, otherwise the bpf
program may incur use-after-free problem, so need_defer needs to be
true.
2) release the reference of the to-be-added element in the error path of
map update. The to-be-added element is not visible to any bpf
program, so it is OK to pass false for need_defer parameter.
3) release the references of all elements in the map during map release.
Any bpf program which has access to the map must have been exited and
released, so need_defer=false will be OK.
These two parameters will be used by the following patches to fix the
potential use-after-free problem for map-in-map.
