Not sure what Eduard is suggesting here, tbh. But I think if this
actually can happen that we have a non-loaded BPF program in one of
those struct_ops slots, then let's add a test demonstrating that.

Worst case of what can happen right now is the kernel rejecting
struct_ops loading due to -22 as a program FD.
