Another problem, this time in how tools/lib/bpf/ specifies which
features to test for and which ones should have the feature detection
shown, does the following patch makes sense? I think it does because
FEATURE_TESTS looks like the ones that will be tested, and
FEATURE_DISPLAY the ones that will appear...:
