I'm good with this change here, just a comment below in general.

We now have 286 tests, which is awesome!

Perhaps, we need to start thinking of a better test description method
soonish as the test_bpf.ko module grew to ~1.6M, i.e. whenever we add
to struct bpf_test, it adds memory overhead upon all test cases.

Really minor nit: declaration of page, ptr could have been only in this block.
