This patch adds a gen_epilogue test to test a main prog
using a bpf_tail_call.

A non test_loader test is used. The tailcall target program,
"test_epilogue_subprog", needs to be used in a struct_ops map
before it can be loaded. Another struct_ops map is also needed
to host the actual "test_epilogue_tailcall" struct_ops program
that does the bpf_tail_call. The earlier test_loader patch
will attach all struct_ops maps but the bpf_testmod.c does
not support >1 attached struct_ops.

The earlier patch used the test_loader which has already covered
checking for the patched pro/epilogue instructions. This is done
by the __xlated tag.

This patch goes for the regular skel load and syscall test to do
the tailcall test that can also allow to directly pass the
the "struct st_ops_args *args" as ctx_in to the
SEC("syscall") program.

Nitpick:
Both test_epilogue_tailcall and test_epilogue_subprog would be
augmented with epilogue, and we know that tail call run as expected
because only test_epilogue_subprog does +1, right?

Yes. and also the epilogue of the test_epilogue_subprog is executed.


If above is true, could you please update the comment a bit, e.g.:

/* Both test_epilogue_tailcall and test_epilogue_subprog are
  * augmented with epilogue. When syscall_epilogue_tailcall()
  * is run test_epilogue_tailcall() is triggered,
  * it executes a tail call and control is transferred to
  * test_epilogue_subprog(). Only test_epilogue_subprog()
  * does args->a += 1, thus final args.a value of 10001
  * guarantees that tail call was executed as expected.
  */

Added. I massaged the wordings a little.
