It's an overkill to introduce a new helper function just to validate
flags that almost compile time constants.
The flags are not user supplied.
Please move /* BPF_TRAMP_F_RET_FENTRY_RET is only used by bpf_struct_ops ... */
comment to bpf_struct_ops.c right before it calls arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline()
And add a comment to trampoline.c saying that BPF_TRAMP_F_RESTORE_REGS
and BPF_TRAMP_F_SKIP_FRAME should not be set together.
We could add a warn_on there or in arch code, but feels like overkill.
