bpf: detect infinite loop in get_loop_entry()

Browse Source 
Tejun Heo reported an infinite loop in get_loop_entry(),
when verifying a sched_ext program layered_dispatch in [1].
After some investigation I'm sure that root cause is fixed by patches
1,3 in this patch-set.

To err on the safe side, this commit modifies get_loop_entry() to
detect infinite loops and abort verification in such cases.
The number of steps get_loop_entry(S) can make while moving along the
bpf_verifier_state->loop_entry chain is bounded by the DFS depth of
state S. This fact is exploited to implement the check.

To avoid dealing with the potential error code returned from
get_loop_entry() in update_loop_entry(), remove the get_loop_entry()
calls there:
- This change does not affect correctness. Loop entries would still be
  updated during the backward DFS move in update_branch_counts().
- This change does not affect performance. Measurements show that
  get_loop_entry() performs at most 1 step on selftests and at most 2
  steps on sched_ext programs (1 step in 17 cases, 2 steps in 3
  cases, measured using "do-not-submit" patches from [2]).
