bpf, riscv: inline bpf_get_current_task() and bpf_get_current_task_btf()
On RISC-V, the current task pointer is stored in the thread pointer
register (tp). Emit a single `mv a5, tp` instead of a full helper
call for BPF_FUNC_get_current_task and BPF_FUNC_get_current_task_btf.
Register bpf_jit_inlines_helper_call() entries for both helpers so the
verifier treats them as inlined, and add the expected `mv a5, tp`
annotation to the riscv64 selftests.
The following show changes before and after this patch.
Before patch:
auipc t1,0x817a # load upper PC-relative address
jalr -2004(t1) # call bpf_get_current_task helper
mv a5,a0 # move return value to BPF_REG_0
After patch:
mv a5,tp # directly: a5 = current (tp = thread pointer)
Benchmark (bpf_prog_test_run wrapping bpf_get_current_task in loop,
batch=100, 10s, QEMU RISC-V):
