BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINTs can be executed nested on the same CPU, as
they do not increment bpf_prog_active while executing.
This enables three levels of nesting, to support
- a kprobe or raw tp or perf event,
- another one of the above that irq context happens to call, and
- another one in nmi context
(at most one of which may be a kprobe or perf event).
Fixes: 20b9d7ac48 ("bpf: avoid excessive stack usage for perf_sample_data")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
