CONFIG_PREEMPT is a preemtion model the so called "Low-Latency Desktop".
A different preemption model is PREEMPT_RT the so called "Real-Time".
Both implement preemption in kernel and set CONFIG_PREEMPTION.
There is also the so called "LAZY PREEMPT" which the "Scheduler
controlled preemption model". Here we have also preemption in the kernel
the rules are slightly different.

Therefore the testsuite should not check for CONFIG_PREEMPT (as one
model) but for CONFIG_PREEMPTION to figure out if preemption in the
kernel is possible.

Availability of the gettid definition across glibc versions supported by
BPF selftests is not certain. Currently, all users in the tree open-code
syscall to gettid. Convert them to a common macro definition.

Destroy the created skeleton when CONFIG_PREEMPT is off, else will be
resource leak.

<title>selftests/bpf: Add test result messages for test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup</title>

Add test result message when test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup()
succeeds or is skipped. The test case can be skipped due to the choose
of preemption model in kernel config, so export skips in test_maps.c and
increase it when needed.

The following is the output of test_maps when the test case succeeds or
is skipped:

  test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup:PASS
  test_maps: OK, 0 SKIPPED

  test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup SKIP (no CONFIG_PREEMPT)
  test_maps: OK, 1 SKIPPED

Under full preemptible kernel, task local storage lookup operations on
the same CPU may update per-cpu bpf_task_storage_busy concurrently. If
the update of bpf_task_storage_busy is not preemption safe, the final
value of bpf_task_storage_busy may become not-zero forever and
bpf_task_storage_trylock() will always fail. So add a test case to
ensure the update of bpf_task_storage_busy is preemption safe.

Will skip the test case when CONFIG_PREEMPT is disabled, and it can only
reproduce the problem probabilistically. By increasing
TASK_STORAGE_MAP_NR_LOOP and running it under ARM64 VM with 4-cpus, it
takes about four rounds to reproduce:

&gt; test_maps is modified to only run test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup()
$ export TASK_STORAGE_MAP_NR_THREAD=256
$ export TASK_STORAGE_MAP_NR_LOOP=81920
$ export TASK_STORAGE_MAP_PIN_CPU=1
$ time ./test_maps
test_task_storage_map_stress_lookup(135):FAIL:bad bpf_task_storage_busy got -2

real    0m24.743s
