[PATCH RESEND bpf-next 04/18] bpf: move unprivileged checks into map_create() and bpf_prog_load()

[Andrii Nakryiko]

Make each bpf() syscall command a bit more self-contained, making it
easier to further enhance it. We move sysctl_unprivileged_bpf_disabled
handling down to map_create() and bpf_prog_load(), two special commands
in this regard.

Also swap the order of checks, calling bpf_capable() only if
sysctl_unprivileged_bpf_disabled is true, avoiding unnecessary audit
messages.
