[PATCH bpf-next 09/13] bpf: Add BPF_FUNC_jiffies

[Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@xxxxxx>]

This patch adds a helper to handle jiffies.  Some of the
tcp_sock's timing is stored in jiffies.  Although things
could be deduced by CONFIG_HZ, having an easy way to get
jiffies will make the later bpf-tcp-cc implementation easier.

While at it, instead of reading jiffies alone, it also takes a
"flags" argument to help converting between ns and jiffies.

This helper is available to CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
