[PATCH bpf v2 0/3] Fix caching of BTF for kfuncs in the verifier

["Toke Høiland-Jørgensen" <toke@redhat.com>]

When playing around with defining kfuncs in some custom modules, we
noticed that if a BPF program calls two functions with the same
signature in two different modules, the function from the wrong module
may sometimes end up being called. Whether this happens depends on the
order of the calls in the BPF program, which turns out to be due to the
use of sort() inside __find_kfunc_desc_btf() in the verifier code.

This series contains a fix for the issue (first patch), and a selftest
to trigger it (last patch). The middle commit is a small refactor to
expose the module loading helper functions in testing_helpers.c. See the
individual patch descriptions for more details.

Changes in v2:
- Drop patch that refactors module building in selftests (Alexei)
- Get rid of expect_val function argument in selftest (Jiri)
- Collect ACKs
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241008-fix-kfunc-btf-caching-for-modules-v1-0-dfefd9aa4318@redhat.com
