Use of bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns() and bpf_timer_* helpers in tracing
progs may result in locking issues.

bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns() uses ktime_get_coarse_ns() time accessor that
isn't safe for any context:

There is a possible deadlock with bpf_timer_* set of helpers:
hrtimer_start()
  lock_base();
  trace_hrtimer...()
    perf_event()
      bpf_run()
        bpf_timer_start()
          hrtimer_start()
            lock_base()         <- DEADLOCK

Forbid use of bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns() and bpf_timer_* helpers in
BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE, BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT, BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
and BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT prog types.

Fixes: d055126 ("bpf: Add bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns helper")
Fixes: b00628b ("bpf: Introduce bpf timers.")
Reported-by: syzbot+43fd005b5a1b4d10781e@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
This patch adds tests that bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns(), bpf_timer_* and
bpf_spin_lock()/bpf_spin_unlock() helpers are forbidden in tracing progs
as their use there may result in various locking issues.
