nfp: bpf: move to new BPF program offload infrastructure
Following steps are taken in the driver to offload an XDP program: XDP_SETUP_PROG: * prepare: - allocate program state; - run verifier (bpf_analyzer()); - run translation; * load: - stop old program if needed; - load program; - enable BPF if not enabled; * clean up: - free program image. With new infrastructure the flow will look like this: BPF_OFFLOAD_VERIFIER_PREP: - allocate program state; BPF_OFFLOAD_TRANSLATE: - run translation; XDP_SETUP_PROG: - stop old program if needed; - load program; - enable BPF if not enabled; BPF_OFFLOAD_DESTROY: - free program image. Take advantage of the new infrastructure. Allocation of driver metadata has to be moved from jit.c to offload.c since it's now done at a different stage. Since there is no separate driver private data for verification step, move temporary nfp_meta pointer into nfp_prog. We will now use user space context offsets.
