bpf: convert stackmap to pre-allocation

It was observed that calling bpf_get_stackid() from a kprobe inside
slub or from spin_unlock causes similar deadlock as with hashmap,
therefore convert stackmap to use pre-allocated memory.

The call_rcu is no longer feasible mechanism, since delayed freeing
causes bpf_get_stackid() to fail unpredictably when number of actual
stacks is significantly less than user requested max_entries.
Since elements are no longer freed into slub, we can push elements into
freelist immediately and let them be recycled.
However the very unlikley race between user space map_lookup() and
program-side recycling is possible:
     cpu0                          cpu1
     ----                          ----
user does lookup(stackidX)
starts copying ips into buffer
                                   delete(stackidX)
                                   calls bpf_get_stackid()
				   which recyles the element and
                                   overwrites with new stack trace

To avoid user space seeing a partial stack trace consisting of two
merged stack traces, do bucket = xchg(, NULL); copy; xchg(,bucket);
to preserve consistent stack trace delivery to user space.
Now we can move memset(,0) of left-over element value from critical
path of bpf_get_stackid() into slow-path of user space lookup.
Also disallow lookup() from bpf program, since it's useless and
program shouldn't be messing with collected stack trace.

Note that similar race between user space lookup and kernel side updates
is also present in hashmap, but it's not a new race. bpf programs were
always allowed to modify hash and array map elements while user space
is copying them.
