yeah, see also my reply to Masami. __bpf_tramp_exit and
__bpf_tramp_enter are two specific examples. Both are marked notrace,
but one is in available_filter_functions and another is not. Neither
should be attachable, but doing this local change you can see that one
of them (__bpf_tramp_exit) is:

Quite weird.
