From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

To address OOM issue when one cpu is allocating and another cpu is freeing add
a target bpf_mem_cache hint to allocated objects and when local cpu free_llist
overflows free to that bpf_mem_cache. The hint addresses the OOM while
maintaing the same performance for common case when alloc/free are done on the
same cpu.
