Merge branch 'bpf-arm64-relax-constraint-in-bpf-jit-compiler'

Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) says:

====================
this series follows up on the one introducing 9+ args for tracing
programs [1]. It has been observed with this series that there are cases
for which we can not identify accurately the location of the target
function arguments to prepare correctly the corresponding BPF
trampoline. This is the case for example if:
- the function consumes a struct variable _by value_
- it is passed on the stack (no more register available for it)
- it has some __packed__ or __aligned(X)__ attribute

As a consequence, a small restrictive check has been added to the ARM64
side, highlighting that other arch supporting 9+ args in BPF trampolines
are already suffering from the same issue.  After a bit of discussions
and attempts, the chosen solution is, rather than applying the same
constraint to all JIT compilers, to prevent such function from being
encoded at all in BTF info([2]). As the pahole side is closed to be
integrated, we can now remove the restrictive check from kernel side.
