When BPF selftests are built in RELEASE=1 mode with -O2 optimization level, uprobe_multi binary, called from multi-uprobe tests is optimized to the point that all the thousands of target uprobe_multi_func_XXX functions are eliminated, breaking tests. So ensure they are preserved through noinline + asm volatile trick. But, actually, compiling uprobe_multi binary with -O2 takes a really long time, and is quite useless (it's not a benchmark). So in addition to ensuring that uprobe_multi_func_XXX functions are preserved, opt-out of -O2 explicitly in Makefile and stick to -O0. This saves a lot of compilation time.
