bpf stackmap with build-id lookup (BPF_F_STACK_BUILD_ID) can trigger A-A deadlock on rq_lock():

rcu: INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: [...] Call Trace: try_to_wake_up+0x1ad/0x590 wake_up_q+0x54/0x80 rwsem_wake+0x8a/0xb0 bpf_get_stack+0x13c/0x150 bpf_prog_fbdaf42eded9fe46_on_event+0x5e3/0x1000 bpf_overflow_handler+0x60/0x100 __perf_event_overflow+0x4f/0xf0 perf_swevent_overflow+0x99/0xc0 ___perf_sw_event+0xe7/0x120 __schedule+0x47d/0x620 schedule+0x29/0x90 futex_wait_queue_me+0xb9/0x110 futex_wait+0x139/0x230 do_futex+0x2ac/0xa50 __x64_sys_futex+0x13c/0x180 do_syscall_64+0x42/0x100 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

This can be reproduced by: 1. Start a multi-thread program that does parallel mmap() and malloc(); 2. taskset the program to 2 CPUs; 3. Attach bpf program to trace_sched_switch and gather stackmap with build-id, e.g. with trace.py from bcc tools: trace.py -U -p <pid> -s <some-bin,some-lib> t:sched:sched_switch

A sample reproducer is attached at the end.

This could also trigger deadlock with other locks that are nested with rq_lock.

Fix this by checking whether irqs are disabled. Since rq_lock and all other nested locks are irq safe, it is safe to do up_read() when irqs are not disable. If the irqs are disabled, postpone up_read() in irq_work.
