[v3,bpf,RESEND,4/4] bpf: use module_alloc_huge for bpf_prog_pack

Commit Message

Use module_alloc_huge for bpf_prog_pack so that BPF programs sit on
PMD_SIZE pages. This benefits system performance by reducing iTLB miss
rate.

Also, remove set_vm_flush_reset_perms() from alloc_new_pack() and use
set_memory_[nx|rw] in bpf_prog_pack_free(). This is because
VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS does not work with huge pages yet.
