bpf: allow calling bpf_kptr_xchg while holding a lock

For the following scenario:
struct tree_node {
    struct bpf_rb_node node;
    struct request __kptr *req;
    u64 key;
};
struct bpf_rb_root tree_root __contains(tree_node, node);
struct bpf_spin_lock tree_lock;

If we need to traverse all nodes in the rbtree, retrieve the __kptr
pointer from each node, and read kernel data from the referenced
object, using bpf_kptr_xchg appears unavoidable.

This patch skips the BPF verifier checks for bpf_kptr_xchg when
called while holding a lock.
