Toke Høiland-Jørgensen 03f87c0b45 bpf: Propagate expected_attach_type when verifying freplace programs
For some program types, the verifier relies on the expected_attach_type of
the program being verified in the verification process. However, for
freplace programs, the attach type was not propagated along with the
verifier ops, so the expected_attach_type would always be zero for freplace
programs.

This in turn caused the verifier to sometimes make the wrong call for
freplace programs. For all existing uses of expected_attach_type for this
purpose, the result of this was only false negatives (i.e., freplace
functions would be rejected by the verifier even though they were valid
programs for the target they were replacing). However, should a false
positive be introduced, this can lead to out-of-bounds accesses and/or
crashes.

The fix introduced in this patch is to propagate the expected_attach_type
to the freplace program during verification, and reset it after that is
done.

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.
