We also need to enable the recent 32-bit opt (on bpf-next) on these missing
insns, like what has been done at:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next.git/commit/?id=66d0d5a854a6625974e7de4b874e7934988b0ef8

Perhaps the best way is to wait this patch merged back to bpf-next, then we
do two patches, the first one to enable the opt, the second one then do the
re-factor. I guess this could avoid some code conflict.
