We landed this too soon.
#229     tracing_struct:FAIL
is failing now.
since bpf_testmod.ko is missing a bunch of functions though they're global.

I've tried a bunch of different flags and attributes, but none of them
helped.
The only thing that works is:
diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_testmod/bpf_testmod.c
b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_testmod/bpf_testmod.c
index 46500636d8cd..5fd0f75d5d20 100644

 MODULES = bpf_testmod.ko

 obj-m += bpf_testmod.o

The build fails due to asm stuff.

Maybe we should make scripts/pahole-flags.sh selective
and don't apply skip_encoding_btf_inconsiste to bpf_testmod ?

Thoughts?
