Merge branch 'Optimize performance of update hash-map when free is zero'

Feng zhou says:

====================
From: Feng Zhou <zhoufeng.zf@bytedance.com>

We encountered bad case on big system with 96 CPUs that
alloc_htab_elem() would last for 1ms. The reason is that after the
prealloc hashtab has no free elems, when trying to update, it will still
grab spin_locks of all cpus. If there are multiple update users, the
competition is very serious.

0001: Use head->first to check whether the free list is empty or not before taking
the lock.
0002: Add benchmark to reproduce this worst case.

Changelog:
v5->v6: Addressed comments from Alexei Starovoitov.
- Adjust the commit log.

v4->v5: Addressed comments from Alexei Starovoitov.
- Use head->first.
- Use cpu+max_entries.
some details in here:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20220601084149.13097-1-zhoufeng.zf@bytedance.com/

v3->v4: Addressed comments from Daniel Borkmann.
- Use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE.
some details in here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220530091340.53443-1-zhoufeng.zf@bytedance.com/

v2->v3: Addressed comments from Alexei Starovoitov, Andrii Nakryiko.
- Adjust the way the benchmark is tested.
- Adjust the code format.

v1->v2: Addressed comments from Alexei Starovoitov.
- add a benchmark to reproduce the issue.
- Adjust the code format that avoid adding indent.
