bpf: Fix a race condition between btf_put() and map_free()

When running `./test_progs -j` in my local vm with latest kernel,
I once hit a kasan error like below:

So the problem is at rec->refcount_off in the above.

I did some source code analysis and find the reason.
                                  CPU A                        CPU B
  bpf_map_put:
    ...
    btf_put with rcu callback
    ...
    bpf_map_free_deferred
      with system_unbound_wq
    ...                          ...                           ...
    ...                          btf_free_rcu:                 ...
    ...                          ...                           bpf_map_free_deferred:
    ...                          ...
    ...         --------->       btf_struct_metas_free()
    ...         | race condition ...
    ...         --------->                                     map->ops->map_free()
    ...
    ...                          btf->struct_meta_tab = NULL

In the above, map_free() corresponds to array_map_free() and eventually
calling bpf_rb_root_free() which calls:
  ...
  __bpf_obj_drop_impl(obj, field->graph_root.value_rec, false);
  ...

Here, 'value_rec' is assigned in btf_check_and_fixup_fields() with following code:

  meta = btf_find_struct_meta(btf, btf_id);
  if (!meta)
    return -EFAULT;
  rec->fields[i].graph_root.value_rec = meta->record;

So basically, 'value_rec' is a pointer to the record in struct_metas_tab.
And it is possible that that particular record has been freed by
btf_struct_metas_free() and hence we have a kasan error here.

Actually it is very hard to reproduce the failure with current bpf/bpf-next
code, I only got the above error once. To increase reproducibility, I added
a delay in bpf_map_free_deferred() to delay map->ops->map_free(), which
significantly increased reproducibility.

To fix the problem, I moved btf_put() after map->ops->map_free() to ensure
struct_metas available during map_free(). Rerun './test_progs -j' with the
above mdelay() hack for a couple of times and didn't observe the error.
