New version of the sleepable bpf_timer code, without BPF changes, as
they can now go through the HID tree independantly:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240315-hid-bpf-sleepable-v4-0-5658f2540564@kernel.org/

For reference, the use cases I have in mind:

---

Basically, I need to be able to defer a HID-BPF program for the
following reasons (from the aforementioned patch):
1. defer an event:
   Sometimes we receive an out of proximity event, but the device can not
   be trusted enough, and we need to ensure that we won't receive another
   one in the following n milliseconds. So we need to wait those n
   milliseconds, and eventually re-inject that event in the stack.

2. inject new events in reaction to one given event:
   We might want to transform one given event into several. This is the
   case for macro keys where a single key press is supposed to send
   a sequence of key presses. But this could also be used to patch a
   faulty behavior, if a device forgets to send a release event.

3. communicate with the device in reaction to one event:
   We might want to communicate back to the device after a given event.
   For example a device might send us an event saying that it came back
   from sleeping state and needs to be re-initialized.

Currently we can achieve that by keeping a userspace program around,
raise a bpf event, and let that userspace program inject the events and
commands.
However, we are just keeping that program alive as a daemon for just
scheduling commands. There is no logic in it, so it doesn't really justify
an actual userspace wakeup. So a kernel workqueue seems simpler to handle.

bpf_timers are currently running in a soft IRQ context, this patch
series implements a sleppable context for them.

Cheers,
Benjamin

Changes in v4:
- dropped the BPF changes, they can go independently in bpf-core
- dropped the HID-BPF integration tests with the sleppable timers,
  I'll re-add them once both series (this and sleepable timers) are
  merged
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240221-hid-bpf-sleepable-v3-0-1fb378ca6301@kernel.org

Changes in v3:
- fixed the crash from v2
- changed the API to have only BPF_F_TIMER_SLEEPABLE for
  bpf_timer_start()
- split the new kfuncs/verifier patch into several sub-patches, for
  easier reviews
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240214-hid-bpf-sleepable-v2-0-5756b054724d@kernel.org

Changes in v2:
- make use of bpf_timer (and dropped the custom HID handling)
- implemented bpf_timer_set_sleepable_cb as a kfunc
- still not implemented global subprogs
- no sleepable bpf_timer selftests yet
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240209-hid-bpf-sleepable-v1-0-4cc895b5adbd@kernel.org
