When we attach a sleepable hook to hid_hw_raw_requests, we can (and in many cases should) call ourself hid_bpf_raw_request(), to actually fetch data from the device itself. However, this means that we might enter an infinite loop between hid_hw_raw_requests hooks and hid_bpf_hw_request() call. To prevent that, if a hid_bpf_hw_request() call is emitted, we prevent any new call of this kfunc by storing the information in the context. This way we can always trace/monitor/filter the incoming bpf requests, while preventing those loops to happen. I don't think exposing "from_bpf" is very interesting because while writing such a bpf program, you need to match at least the report number and/or the source of the call. So a blind "if there is a hid_hw_raw_request() call, I'm emitting another one" makes no real sense.
