bpf: support nested rcu critical sections



Currently, nested rcu critical sections are rejected by the verifier and
rcu_lock state is managed by a boolean variable. Add support for nested
rcu critical sections by make active_rcu_locks a counter similar to
active_preempt_locks. bpf_rcu_read_lock() increments this counter and
bpf_rcu_read_unlock() decrements it, MEM_RCU -> PTR_UNTRUSTED transition
happens when active_rcu_locks drops to 0.
