After commit e21aa341785c ("bpf: Fix fexit trampoline."), the selector is only used to indicate how many times the bpf trampoline image are updated and been displayed in the trampoline ksym name. After the trampoline is freed, the count will start from 0 again. So the count is a useless value to the user, we'd better show a more meaningful value like how many progs are linked to this trampoline. After that change, the selector can be removed eventally. If the user want to check whether the bpf trampoline image has been updated or not, the user can also compare the address. Each time the trampoline image is updated, the address will change consequently.
