kfuncs are allowed to be static, or not use one or more of their
arguments. For example, bpf_xdp_metadata_rx_hash() in net/core/xdp.c is
meant to be implemented by drivers, with the default implementation just
returning -EOPNOTSUPP. As described in [0], such kfuncs can have their
arguments elided, which can cause BTF encoding to be skipped. The new
__bpf_kfunc macro should address this, and this patch adds a selftest
which verifies that a static kfunc with at least one unused argument can
still be encoded and invoked by a BPF program.
