That shouldn't happen. test_recursion_try_acquire() uses a
per-task_struct value. One single task_struct can't run in parallel,
right?
Note that the bpf program running in softirq or irq context won't be
prevented by it.
IIUC, the bpf program should run in serial in one single task, right?
That said, one bpf program can only run after another bpf program
finished in the same task?
