Probably worth explaining that this happens because bpf_throw is marked
__attribute__((noreturn)) and compiler can emit it last without BPF_EXIT insn.
Meaing the program might not have BPF_EXIT at all.

I wonder though whether this self-inflicted pain is worth it.
May be it shouldn't be marked as noreturn.
What do we gain by marking?
