[PATCH bpf 1/4] bpf: remove __rcu annotations from bpf_prog_array

[Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Drop __rcu annotations and rcu read sections. That's not needed since
all existing callers call those helpers from the rcu update side
and under a mutex. This guarantees that use-after-free could not
happen. In the next patches I'll fix the callers with missing
rcu_dereference_protected to make sparse/lockdep happy.
