Quentin Monnet 1385d755cf bpf: pass a struct with offload callbacks to bpf_offload_dev_create()
For passing device functions for offloaded eBPF programs, there used to
be no place where to store the pointer without making the non-offloaded
programs pay a memory price.

As a consequence, three functions were called with ndo_bpf() through
specific commands. Now that we have struct bpf_offload_dev, and since
none of those operations rely on RTNL, we can turn these three commands
into hooks inside the struct bpf_prog_offload_ops, and pass them as part
of bpf_offload_dev_create().

This commit effectively passes a pointer to the struct to
bpf_offload_dev_create(). We temporarily have two struct
bpf_prog_offload_ops instances, one under offdev->ops and one under
offload->dev_ops. The next patches will make the transition towards the
former, so that offload->dev_ops can be removed, and callbacks relying
on ndo_bpf() added to offdev->ops as well.

While at it, rename "nfp_bpf_analyzer_ops" as "nfp_bpf_dev_ops" (and
similarly for netdevsim).

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.
