bpf: Retire the struct_ops map kvalue->refcnt.

We have replaced kvalue-refcnt with synchronize_rcu() to wait for an
RCU grace period.

Maintenance of kvalue->refcnt was a complicated task, as we had to
simultaneously keep track of two reference counts: one for the
reference count of bpf_map. When the kvalue->refcnt reaches zero, we
also have to reduce the reference count on bpf_map - yet these steps
are not performed in an atomic manner and require us to be vigilant
when managing them. By eliminating kvalue->refcnt, we can make our
maintenance more straightforward as the refcount of bpf_map is now
solely managed!

To prevent the trampoline image of a struct_ops from being released
while it is still in use, we wait for an RCU grace period. The
setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION, "...") command allows you to change your
socket's congestion control algorithm and can result in releasing the
old struct_ops implementation. It is fine. However, this function is
exposed through bpf_setsockopt(), it may be accessed by BPF programs
as well. To ensure that the trampoline image belonging to struct_op
can be safely called while its method is in use, the trampoline
safeguarde the BPF program with rcu_read_lock(). Doing so prevents any
destruction of the associated images before returning from a
trampoline and requires us to wait for an RCU grace period.
