bpf: Add kconfig knob for disabling unpriv bpf by default
commit 08389d888287c3823f80b0216766b71e17f0aba5 upstream. Add a kconfig knob which allows for unprivileged bpf to be disabled by default. If set, the knob sets /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled to value of 2. This still allows a transition of 2 -> {0,1} through an admin. Similarly, this also still keeps 1 -> {1} behavior intact, so that once set to permanently disabled, it cannot be undone aside from a reboot. We've also added extra2 with max of 2 for the procfs handler, so that an admin still has a chance to toggle between 0 <-> 2. Either way, as an additional alternative, applications can make use of CAP_BPF that we added a while ago.

+==========================
+
+Writing 1 to this entry will disable unprivileged calls to ``bpf()``;
+once disabled, calling ``bpf()`` without ``CAP_SYS_ADMIN`` will return
+``-EPERM``. Once set to 1, this can't be cleared from the running kernel
+anymore.
+
+Writing 2 to this entry will also disable unprivileged calls to ``bpf()``,
+however, an admin can still change this setting later on, if needed, by
+writing 0 or 1 to this entry.
+
+If ``BPF_UNPRIV_DEFAULT_OFF`` is enabled in the kernel config, then this
+entry will default to 2 instead of 0.
