Subject: [PATCH v3 bpf-next] selftests/bpf: Fix arena_spin_lock selftest failure

For systems having CONFIG_NR_CPUS set to > 1024 in kernel config
the selftest fails as arena_spin_lock_irqsave() returns EOPNOTSUPP.
(eg - incase of powerpc default value for CONFIG_NR_CPUS is 8192)

The selftest is skipped incase bpf program returns EOPNOTSUPP,
with a descriptive message logged.

---

Changes since v2:
* Separated arena_spin_lock selftest fix patch from the arena
  patchset as it has to go via bpf-next tree.
* For EOPNOTSUPP set test_skip to 3, to differentiate it from
  scenarios when run conditions are not met as suggested by Hari.
* Tweaked message displayed on SKIP to remove display of online
  cpus.

v2:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250829165135.1273071-1-skb99@linux.ibm.com/

Changes since v1:
Addressed comments from Alexei:
* Removed skel->rodata->nr_cpus = get_nprocs() and its usage to get
  currently online cpus(as it needs to be updated from userspace).

v1:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250805062747.3479221-1-skb99@linux.ibm.com/
