Ack. I can do some refactoring. The least thing that I can do is
moving kallsyms_find() to a header for both prog_tests/ksyms.c and
this test to use.

Right. With some experiments, I found the address of a percpu variable
doesn't necessarily point to a valid structure. So it doesn't make
sense to dereference runqueues and access its members. However, right
now there are only percpu variables encoded in BTF, so I can't test
accessing members of general global/static variables unfortunately.
