Exciting news:
when I construct the kernel package, I found lots of following warnings:
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'task_struct': 241, 21719 - using 241
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'vm_area_struct': 360, 21750 - using 360
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'file': 805, 21789 - using 805
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'cgroup': 666, 21819 - using 666
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'inode': 928, 21936 - using 928
WARN: multiple IDs found for 'path': 960, 21965 - using 960

These warnings lead me to:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/ZBovCrMXJk7NPISp@aurel32.net/T/

So, I upgraded my pahole from [1], and construct the kernel package
again, now I can successfully invoke
bpftool struct_ops register bpf_cubic.bpf.o

[1] https://github.com/acmel/dwarves.git

Sorry for the previous noise

and

Thanks again
