For percpu data structure allocation with bpf_global_percpu_ma, the maximum data size is 4K. But for a system with large number of cpus, bigger data size (e.g., 2K, 4K) might consume a lot of memory. For example, the percpu memory consumption with unit size 2K and 1024 cpus will be 2K * 1K * 1k = 2GB memory. We should discourage such usage. Let us limit the maximum data size to be 512 for bpf_global_percpu_ma allocation.
