bpf: Implement bpf_prog replacement for an active bpf_cgroup_link
Add new operation (LINK_UPDATE), which allows to replace active bpf_prog from
under given bpf_link. Currently this is only supported for bpf_cgroup_link,
but will be extended to other kinds of bpf_links in follow-up patches.
For bpf_cgroup_link, implemented functionality matches existing semantics for
direct bpf_prog attachment (including BPF_F_REPLACE flag). User can either
unconditionally set new bpf_prog regardless of which bpf_prog is currently
active under given bpf_link, or, optionally, can specify expected active
bpf_prog. If active bpf_prog doesn't match expected one, no changes are
performed, old bpf_link stays intact and attached, operation returns
a failure.
cgroup_bpf_replace() operation is resolving race between auto-detachment and
bpf_prog update in the same fashion as it's done for bpf_link detachment,
except in this case update has no way of succeeding because of target cgroup
marked as dying. So in this case error is returned.
