Hi Hou,

I have a suggestion about testing this rewrite.
It is possible to use function get_xlated_program() from
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/ctx_rewrite.c,
to obtain a BPF disassembly for the program after
do_misc_fixups() are applied.

So, it shouldn't be difficult to:
- prepare a dummy program in progs/ that uses bpf_kptr_xchg();
- prepare a new test_* function in prog_tests/ that:
  - loads that dummy program;
  - queries it's disassembly using get_xlated_program();
  - compares it with expected template.

I know that do_misc_fixups() are usually not tested this way,
but that does not mean they shouldn't, wdyt?

Thanks,
Eduard
