docs/bpf: Fix sphinx warnings for cpumap

Sphinx version >=3.1 warns about duplicate function declarations in the
CPUMAP documentation. This is because the function name is the same for
kernel and user space BPF progs but the parameters and return types
they take is what differs. This patch moves from using the ``c:function::``
directive to using the ``code-block:: c`` directive. The patches also fix
the indentation for the text associated with the "new" code block delcarations.
The missing support of c:namespace-push:: and c:namespace-pop:: directives by
helper scripts for kernel documentation prevents using the ``c:function::``
directive with proper namespacing.

bpf_redirect_map()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: c
long bpf_redirect_map(struct bpf_map *map, u32 key, u64 flags)
Redirect the packet to the endpoint referenced by ``map`` at index ``key``.
For ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_CPUMAP`` this map contains references to CPUs.

The lower two bits of ``flags`` are used as the return code if the map lookup
fails. This is so that the return value can be one of the XDP program return
codes up to ``XDP_TX``, as chosen by the caller.

CPUMAP entries can only be updated/looked up/deleted from user space and not
from an eBPF program. Trying to call these functions from a kernel eBPF
program will result in the program failing to load and a verifier warning.

bpf_map_update_elem()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code-block:: c
int bpf_map_update_elem(int fd, const void *key, const void *value, __u64 flags);
CPU entries can be added or updated using the ``bpf_map_update_elem()``
helper. This helper replaces existing elements atomically. The ``value`` parameter
can be ``struct bpf_cpumap_val``.
