Commit728ff16791uses a PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT BPF test program to check whether the running kernel supports large LDIMM64 offsets. The feature gate incorrectly assumes that the program will fail at verification time with one of two messages, depending on whether the feature is supported by the running kernel. However, PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT programs may fail to load before verification even starts, e.g., if the shell does not have the appropriate capabilities. Use a BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER program for the feature gate instead. Also fix two minor issues. First, ensure the log buffer for the test is initialized: Failing program load before verification led to libbpf dumping uninitialized data to stdout. Also, ensure that close() is only called for program_fd in the probe if the program load actually succeeded. The call was currently failing silently with -EBADF most of the time.
