Merge branch 'bpf-use-vrealloc-in-bpf_patch_insn_data'

Eduard Zingerman says:

====================
bpf: use vrealloc() in bpf_patch_insn_data()

Function bpf_patch_insn_data() uses vzalloc/vfree pair to allocate
memory for updated insn_aux_data. These operations are expensive for
big programs where a lot of rewrites happen, e.g. for pyperf180 test
case. The pair can be replaced with a call to vrealloc in order to
reduce the number of actual memory allocations.
