bpf: Disable preemption in bpf_event_output

commit d62cc390c2e99ae267ffe4b8d7e2e08b6c758c32 upstream.

We received report [1] of kernel crash, which is caused by
using nesting protection without disabled preemption.

The bpf_event_output can be called by programs executed by
bpf_prog_run_array_cg function that disabled migration but
keeps preemption enabled.

This can cause task to be preempted by another one inside the
nesting protection and lead eventually to two tasks using same
perf_sample_data buffer and cause crashes like:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000001
  #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0010) - not-present page

Fixing this by disabling preemption in bpf_event_output.
