Andrii Nakryiko d4dfc5700e bpf: pass whole link instead of prog when triggering raw tracepoint
Instead of passing prog as an argument to bpf_trace_runX() helpers, that
are called from tracepoint triggering calls, store BPF link itself
(struct bpf_raw_tp_link for raw tracepoints). This will allow to pass
extra information like BPF cookie into raw tracepoint registration.

Instead of replacing `struct bpf_prog *prog = __data;` with
corresponding `struct bpf_raw_tp_link *link = __data;` assignment in
`__bpf_trace_##call` I just passed `__data` through into underlying
bpf_trace_runX() call. This works well because we implicitly cast `void *`,
and it also avoids naming clashes with arguments coming from
tracepoint's "proto" list. We could have run into the same problem with
"prog", we just happened to not have a tracepoint that has "prog" input
argument. We are less lucky with "link", as there are tracepoints using
"link" argument name already. So instead of trying to avoid naming
conflicts, let's just remove intermediate local variable. It doesn't
hurt readibility, it's either way a bit of a maze of calls and macros,
that requires careful reading.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the ReStructured Text markup notation.

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.
