Andrea Righi d4680a11e1 bpf: Mark kfuncs as __noclone
Some distributions (e.g., CachyOS) support building the kernel with -O3,
but doing so may break kfuncs, resulting in their symbols not being
properly exported.

In fact, with gcc -O3, some kfuncs may be optimized away despite being
annotated as noinline. This happens because gcc can still clone the
function during IPA optimizations, e.g., by duplicating or inlining it
into callers, and then dropping the standalone symbol. This breaks BTF
ID resolution since resolve_btfids relies on the presence of a global
symbol for each kfunc.

Currently, this is not an issue for upstream, because we don't allow
building the kernel with -O3, but it may be safer to address it anyway,
to prevent potential issues in the future if compilers become more
aggressive with optimizations.

Therefore, add __noclone to __bpf_kfunc to ensure kfuncs are never
cloned and remain distinct, globally visible symbols, regardless of
the optimization level.

Fixes: 57e7c169cd ("bpf: Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs")
