Andrii Nakryiko 635599bace selftests/bpf: Sync RCU before unloading bpf_testmod
If some of the subtests use module BTFs through ksyms, they will cause
bpf_prog to take a refcount on bpf_testmod module, which will prevent it from
successfully unloading. Module's refcnt is decremented when bpf_prog is freed,
which generally happens in RCU callback. So we need to trigger
syncronize_rcu() in the kernel, which can be achieved nicely with
membarrier(MEMBARRIER_CMD_SHARED) or membarrier(MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL) syscall.
So do that in kernel_sync_rcu() and make it available to other test inside the
test_progs. This synchronize_rcu() is called before attempting to unload
bpf_testmod.

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.
