See nit below, but I'm fine with the current state as well.

nit: I'd avoid unnecessary goto end (and end label itself) by having
two explicit returns:

    return 0;
error:
    memset(...);
    return ret;

This seems like a rather useful helper not just in tracing context. So
if maintainers are ok with that, maybe you can follow up with patch
that adds it in more BPF program types.
