====================
bpf: allow bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper with different input maps

Currently, taking different maps within a single bpf_for_each_map_elem
call is not allowed. For example the following codes cannot pass the
verifier (with error "tail_call abusing map_ptr"):
```
static void test_by_pid(int pid)
{
	if (pid <= 100)
		bpf_for_each_map_elem(&map1, map_elem_cb, NULL, 0);
	else
		bpf_for_each_map_elem(&map2, map_elem_cb, NULL, 0);
}
```

This is because during bpf_for_each_map_elem verifying,
bpf_insn_aux_data->map_ptr_state is expected as map_ptr (instead of poison
state), which is then needed by set_map_elem_callback_state. However, as
there are two different map ptr input, map_ptr_state is marked as
BPF_MAP_PTR_POISON, and thus the second map_ptr would be lost.
BPF_MAP_PTR_POISON is also needed by bpf_for_each_map_elem to skip
retpoline optimization in do_misc_fixups(). Therefore, map_ptr_state and
map_ptr are both needed for bpf_for_each_map_elem.

This patchset solves it by transform bpf_insn_aux_data->map_ptr_state as a
new struct, storing poison/unpriv state and map pointer together without
additional memory overhead. Then bpf_for_each_map_elem works well with
different input maps. It also makes map_ptr_state logic clearer.

A test case is added to selftest, which would fail to load without this
patchset.

Changelogs
-> v1:
- PATCH 1/3:
  - make the commit log clearer
  - change poison and unpriv to bool in struct bpf_map_ptr_state, also the
    return value in bpf_map_ptr_poisoned() and bpf_map_ptr_unpriv()
- PATCH 2/3:
  - change the comments in set_map_elem_callback_state()
- PATCH 3/3:
  - remove the "skipping the last element" logic during map updating
  - change if() to ASSERT_OK()

Please review, thanks.

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.
