Collecting cgroup statistics is expensive because the existing method
opens and parses a cgroup file. memcg already provides an efficient BPF
interface; extend that model to the CPU controller.

Register css_rstat_flush() as a common kfunc and add
bpf_cgroup_base_stat(). The latter returns cgroup_base_stat after the
same cputime adjustment used by cpu.stat.

The BPF program reads the plain CFS bandwidth counters directly. Add
bpf_css_to_task_group() to check the controller and give the verifier a
typed task_group pointer for bpf_per_cpu_ptr().

css_rstat_flush() may reschedule and requires a sleepable program.
bpf_cgroup_base_stat() only takes locks and is not marked sleepable, but
those locks are not NMI-safe.
