Jakub Kicinski a2a7d57010 bpf: write back the verifier log buffer as it gets filled
Verifier log buffer can be quite large (up to 16MB currently).
As Eric Dumazet points out if we allow multiple verification
requests to proceed simultaneously, malicious user may use the
verifier as a way of allocating large amounts of unswappable
memory to OOM the host.

Switch to a strategy of allocating a smaller buffer (1024B)
and writing it out into the user buffer after every print.

While at it remove the old BUG_ON().

This is in preparation of the global verifier lock removal.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
