I think it'd work.. I can just think of a case where we'd not allow
to attach fentry program (3) to another fentry (2) even if it's not
attached, but just loaded, like:


load (fentry1 -> kernel function)

load (fentry2 -> fentry1)
  fentry2->attach_tracing_prog = true

load (fentry3 -> fentry2)
  if (fentry2->aux->attach_tracing_prog)
    return -EINVAL


I guess it's corner case that does not make much sense, but still it
feels more natural to me to set it in attach time
