CVE-2024-58100bpf: check changes_pkt_data property for extension programs

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: check changes_pkt_data property for extension programs When processing calls to global sub-programs, verifier decides whether to invalidate all packet pointers in current state depending on the changes_pkt_data property of the global sub-program. Because of this, an extension program replacing a global sub-program must be compatible with changes_pkt_data property of the sub-program being replaced. This commit: - adds changes_pkt_data flag to struct bpf_prog_aux: - this flag is set in check_cfg() for main sub-program; - in jit_subprogs() for other sub-programs; - modifies bpf_check_attach_btf_id() to check changes_pkt_data flag; - moves call to check_attach_btf_id() after the call to check_cfg(), because it needs changes_pkt_data flag to be set: bpf_check: ... ... - check_attach_btf_id resolve_pseudo_ldimm64 resolve_pseudo_ldimm64 --> bpf_prog_is_offloaded bpf_prog_is_offloaded check_cfg check_cfg + check_attach_btf_id ... ... The following fields are set by check_attach_btf_id(): - env->ops - prog->aux->attach_btf_trace - prog->aux->attach_func_name - prog->aux->attach_func_proto - prog->aux->dst_trampoline - prog->aux->mod - prog->aux->saved_dst_attach_type - prog->aux->saved_dst_prog_type - prog->expected_attach_type Neither of these fields are used by resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() or bpf_prog_offload_verifier_prep() (for netronome and netdevsim drivers), so the reordering is safe.
