Song Liu 6ee52e2a3f perf, bpf: Introduce PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
For better performance analysis of BPF programs, this patch introduces
PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, a new perf_event_type that exposes BPF program
load/unload information to user space.

Each BPF program may contain up to BPF_MAX_SUBPROGS (256) sub programs.
The following example shows kernel symbols for a BPF program with 7 sub
programs:

    ffffffffa0257cf9 t bpf_prog_b07ccb89267cf242_F
    ffffffffa02592e1 t bpf_prog_2dcecc18072623fc_F
    ffffffffa025b0e9 t bpf_prog_bb7a405ebaec5d5c_F
    ffffffffa025dd2c t bpf_prog_a7540d4a39ec1fc7_F
    ffffffffa025fcca t bpf_prog_05762d4ade0e3737_F
    ffffffffa026108f t bpf_prog_db4bd11e35df90d4_F
    ffffffffa0263f00 t bpf_prog_89d64e4abf0f0126_F
    ffffffffa0257cf9 t bpf_prog_ae31629322c4b018__dummy_tracepoi

When a bpf program is loaded, PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL is generated for each
of these sub programs. Therefore, PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is not needed
for simple profiling.

For annotation, user space need to listen to PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT and
gather more information about these (sub) programs via sys_bpf.
