I'll look into it. There were some problems getting it to run on Arch and
Fedora, so I instead tested in my own VM (GLIBC_2.33 not found).

Surprisingly, everything passed when I ran it before sending. e.g. I still
get this for the two failing tests in CI.

[root@(none) bpf]# ./test_progs -t ksyms_module_libbpf
#66 ksyms_module_libbpf:OK
Summary: 1/0 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
[root@(none) bpf]# ./test_progs -t module_attach
#81 module_attach:OK
Summary: 1/0 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
