bpf: Check rcu_read_lock_trace_held() before calling bpf map helpers

The three bpf_map_{lookup,update,delete}_elem() helper functions are also
available for sleepable bpf programs, the patch adds the corresponding lock
assertion for sleepable bpf programs.

[Fix]

Noble:  Fixed
Jammy:  Backported the fix commit from linux-6.1.y
Focal:  Not affected
Bionic: Not affected
Xenial: Not affected

[Test Case]

Compile tested.

[Where problems could occur]

The fix for CVE-2023-52621 affetcs the BPF subsystem, in particular the
handling of BPF map operations in sleepable BPF programs. A bug in the
patch could lead to kernel warnings or crashes when using BPF maps,
especially when BPF JIT is disabled.
