The trampoline could be corrupted by the blindly
'tr->flags = BPF_TRAMP_F_TAIL_CALL_CTX' in verifier.

1. A fexit attached to a tail_call_reachable prog.
2. Another fexit loaded with the same tail_call_reachable prog target.
3. Close the first fexit link.

Fix the warning by updating 'tr->flags' with '|=' and lock.

Add a test to verify that there's no WARNING when detaching fexit link by
following the repro steps of previous commit.

Without the fix, the WARNING could be triggered by this test.
