perf/bpf: Don't call bpf_overflow_handler() for tracing events
The regressing commit is new in 6.10. It assumed that anytime event->prog is set bpf_overflow_handler() should be invoked to execute the attached bpf program. This assumption is false for tracing events, and as a result the regressing commit broke bpftrace by invoking the bpf handler with garbage inputs on overflow. Prior to the regression the overflow handlers formed a chain (of length 0, 1, or 2) and perf_event_set_bpf_handler() (the !tracing case) added bpf_overflow_handler() to that chain, while perf_event_attach_bpf_prog() (the tracing case) did not. Both set event->prog. The chain of overflow handlers was replaced by a single overflow handler slot and a fixed call to bpf_overflow_handler() when appropriate. This modifies the condition there to check event->prog->type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT, restoring the previous behavior and fixing bpftrace.
