[PATCH V34 23/29] bpf: Restrict bpf when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode

From: David Howells <dhowells at redhat.com>

There are some bpf functions can be used to read kernel memory:
bpf_probe_read, bpf_probe_write_user and bpf_trace_printk.  These allow
private keys in kernel memory (e.g. the hibernation image signing key) to
be read by an eBPF program and kernel memory to be altered without
restriction. Disable them if the kernel has been locked down in
confidentiality mode.
