Daniel Borkmann 88ce88e933 bpf: Add KF_PERFMON kfunc flag
Tracing related BPF helpers e.g. under bpf_base_func_proto() are gated
behind CAP_PERFMON. However, the same is currently not true for kfuncs
and they are accessible via plain CAP_BPF. Add a new KF_PERFMON flag
which can be used such that check_kfunc_call() ensures env->allow_ptr_leaks
is permitted. This follows similar pattern to existing KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag.

The rejection returns -EPERM to match the other CAP_PERFMON gates in the
verifier, that is, check_ptr_to_btf_access() and check_ptr_to_map_access(),
which report the very same policy to user space.
