Merge branch 'bpf-type-format'

Martin KaFai Lau says:

====================
This patch introduces BPF Type Format (BTF).

BTF (BPF Type Format) is the meta data format which describes
the data types of BPF program/map.  Hence, it basically focus
on the C programming language which the modern BPF is primary
using.  The first use case is to provide a generic pretty print
capability for a BPF map.

A modified pahole that can convert dwarf to BTF is here:

Please see individual patch for details.

v5:
- Remove BTF_KIND_FLOAT and BTF_KIND_FUNC which are not
  currently used.  They can be added in the future.
  Some bpf_df_xxx() are removed together.
- Add comment in patch 7 to clarify that the new bpffs_map_fops
  should not be extended further.

v4:
- Fix warning (remove unneeded semicolon)
- Remove a redundant variable (nr_bytes) from btf_int_check_meta() in
  patch 1.  Caught by W=1.

v3:
- Rebase to bpf-next
- Fix sparse warning (by adding static)
- Add BTF header logging: btf_verifier_log_hdr()
- Fix the alignment test on btf->type_off
- Add tests for the BTF header
- Lower the max BTF size to 16MB.  It should be enough
  for some time.  We could raise it later if it would
  be needed.

v2:
- Use kvfree where needed in patch 1 and 2
- Also consider BTF_INT_OFFSET() in the btf_int_check_meta()
  in patch 1
- Fix an incorrect goto target in map_create() during
  the btf-error-path in patch 7
- re-org some local vars to keep the rev xmas tree in btf.c
