Pu Lehui 7dc211c115 bpf: Fix invalid prog->stats access when update_effective_progs fails
Syzkaller triggers an invalid memory access issue following fault
injection in update_effective_progs. The issue can be described as
follows:

__cgroup_bpf_detach
  update_effective_progs
    compute_effective_progs
      bpf_prog_array_alloc <-- fault inject
  purge_effective_progs
    /* change to dummy_bpf_prog */
    array->items[index] = &dummy_bpf_prog.prog

---softirq start---
__do_softirq
  ...
    __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb
      __bpf_prog_run_save_cb
        bpf_prog_run
          stats = this_cpu_ptr(prog->stats)
          /* invalid memory access */
          flags = u64_stats_update_begin_irqsave(&stats->syncp)
---softirq end---

  static_branch_dec(&cgroup_bpf_enabled_key[atype])

The reason is that fault injection caused update_effective_progs to fail
and then changed the original prog into dummy_bpf_prog.prog in
purge_effective_progs. Then a softirq came, and accessing the members of
dummy_bpf_prog.prog in the softirq triggers invalid mem access.

To fix it, skip updating stats when stats is NULL.
