This patch modifies UAPI.  The current patch #3 set a cookie for
fentry/fexit/fmod_ret, but the value is always 0 (empty).

This patch provides a way to set cookies from the userland.

Should I add cases for all attach types?
I thought it is intentionally to have cases only for supported attach
types.  For example, link_create() & bpf_prog_attach() returns earlier
if the returned type of this function is BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC.

Sure! I will send you my branch.
