    selftests/bpf: Fix potential premature unload in bpf_testmod
    
    [ Upstream commit d177c1be06ce28aa8c8710ac55be1b5ad3f314c6 ]
    
    It is possible for bpf_kfunc_call_test_release() to be called from
    bpf_map_free_deferred() when bpf_testmod is already unloaded and
    perf_test_stuct.cnt which it tries to decrease is no longer in memory.
    This patch tries to fix the issue by waiting for all references to be
    dropped in bpf_testmod_exit().
    
    The issue can be triggered by running 'test_progs -t map_kptr' in 6.5,
    but is obscured in 6.6 by d119357d07435 ("rcu-tasks: Treat only
    synchronous grace periods urgently").
