Yonghong Song d69bafe6ee selftests/bpf: Fix usdt multispec failure with arm64/clang20 selftest build
When building the selftest with arm64/clang20, the following test failed:
  ...
  ubtest_multispec_usdt:PASS:usdt_100_called 0 nsec
  subtest_multispec_usdt:PASS:usdt_100_sum 0 nsec
  subtest_multispec_usdt:FAIL:usdt_300_bad_attach unexpected pointer: 0xaaaad82a2a80
  #471/2   usdt/multispec:FAIL
  #471     usdt:FAIL

But arm64/gcc11 built kernel selftests succeeded. Further debug found arm64/clang
generated code has much less argument pattern after dedup, but gcc generated
code has a lot more.

Check usdt probes with usdt.test.o on arm64 platform:

There are total 300 locations for usdt_300. For gcc11 built binary, there are
300 spec's. But for clang20 built binary, there are 3 spec's. The default
BPF_USDT_MAX_SPEC_CNT is 256, so bpf_program__attach_usdt() will fail for gcc
but it will succeed with clang.

To fix the problem, do not do bpf_program__attach_usdt() for usdt_300
with arm64/clang setup.
