[PATCH v3 bpf-next 7/7] selftests/bpf: Add a test verifying inline information

[Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@oracle.com>]

For bpf_testmod verify that we have inline info for an
__always_inline'd function and it matches reasonable
expectations (a single location parameter encoded in a
register given that it cannot be compile-time optimized).

Also verify that the offset of the LOCSEC descriptor makes
sense, i.e. that it is in the range of the function where
it was inlined.

Because bpf_testmod is treated as an out-of-tree module,
the inline information will be in btf_testmod.inline which
is relocated using bpf_testmod.ko .BTF.base.

Test is skipped if pahole does not encode inline info.
