Leon Hwang 61aaa8782b bpf: Fix WARNING in bpf_tracing_link_release
The trampoline could be corrupted by the blindly
'tr->flags = BPF_TRAMP_F_TAIL_CALL_CTX' in verifier.

1. A fexit attached to a tail_call_reachable prog. 'tr->flags' became
   'BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG | BPF_TRAMP_F_TAIL_CALL_CTX'. And, the
   trampoline would poke the target prog's nop insn using jmp insn instead
   of call insn.
2. Another fexit loaded with the same tail_call_reachable prog target.
   'tr->flags' became 'BPF_TRAMP_F_TAIL_CALL_CTX'.
3. Close the first fexit link. Due to no BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG in
   'tr->flags', the trampoline will fail to restore the prog's nop insn
   using call insn.

[    3.410719] WARNING: kernel/bpf/syscall.c:3551 at bpf_tracing_link_release+0x53/0x60, CPU#1: test_progs/98

[    3.429293]  bpf_link_release+0x23/0x30

Fix the warning by updating 'tr->flags' with '|=' and lock.
