Currently bpf_map_do_batch() first invokes fdget(batch.map_fd) to get
the target map file, then it invokes generic_map_update_batch() to do
batch update. generic_map_update_batch() will get the target map file
by using fdget(batch.map_fd) again and pass it to bpf_map_update_value().

The problem is map file returned by the second fdget() may be NULL or a
totally different file compared by map file in bpf_map_do_batch(). The
reason is that the first fdget() only guarantees the liveness of struct
file instead of file descriptor and the file description may be released
by concurrent close() through pick_file().

It doesn't incur any problem as for now, because maps with batch update
support don't use map file in .map_fd_get_ptr() ops. But it is better to
fix the potential access of an invalid map file.

Using __bpf_map_get() again in generic_map_update_batch() can not fix
the problem, because batch.map_fd may be closed and reopened, and the
returned map file may be different with map file got in
bpf_map_do_batch(), so just passing the map file directly to
.map_update_batch() in bpf_map_do_batch().
