bpf: allow clearing all sock_ops callback flags

Browse source 
The helper function bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags_set() can be used to both
set and clear the sock_ops callback flags. However, its current
behavior is not consistent. BPF program may clear a flag if more than
one were set, or replace a flag with another one, but cannot clear all
flags.

This patch also updates the documentation to clarify the ability to
clear flags of this helper function.

* error if an eBPF program tries to set a callback that is not

* The supported callback values that *argval* can combine are:
* *argval* is a flag array which can combine these flags:
*
* * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_RTO_CB_FLAG** (retransmission time out)
* * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_RETRANS_CB_FLAG** (retransmission)
* * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB_FLAG** (TCP state change)
*
* Therefore, this function can be used to clear a callback flag by

* callback:
*
* **bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags_set(bpf_sock,**
* **bpf_sock->bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags & ~BPF_SOCK_OPS_RTO_CB_FLAG)**
