Sorry for the unclear message. It should be emit_bpf_tail_call_xxx()
instead of emit_prologue().

I think it's better to provide the diff of the exclusive approach with
PERCPU tail_call_cnt, in order to compare these two approachs.

P.S. This POC failed to pass all selftests, like "Summary: 0/13 PASSED,
0 SKIPPED, 1 FAILED".
