In bpf_jit_binary_hdr(), we calculate header as image & PAGE_MASK.
If we want s/PAGE_MASK/63 for x86_64, we will have different versions
of bpf_jit_binary_hdr(). It is not on any hot path, so we can use __weak for
it. Other than this, I think the solution works fine.

I think it can stay generic.

The existing bpf_jit_binary_hdr() will do & PAGE_MASK
while bpf_jit_binary_hdr_pack() will do & 63.

The problem with this approach is that we need bpf_prog_ksym_set_addr
to be smart to pick bpf_jit_binary_hdr() or bpf_jit_binary_hdr_pack().

We can probably add a true JIT image size to bpf_prog_aux.
bpf_prog_ksym_set_addr() is approximating the end:
prog->aux->ksym.end   = addr + hdr->pages * PAGE_SIZE
which doesn't have to include all the 'int 3' padding after the end.

Actually, we can use prog->jited_len in bpf_prog_ksym_set_addr(), right?

Lol. Yeah. We should. Looks like somebody remembers their own
code in perf_event_bpf_emit_ksymbols() ;)
