                        ^^^^^^^^

This inline code reads the cookie offset from (ctx[-1] >> 9) & 0xFF, but
does the x86 trampoline actually store the cookie offset at bit position 9?

Looking at arch/x86/net/bpf_jit_comp.c in __arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline(),
the trampoline stores nr_regs to the nregs_off location:

    emit_mov_imm64(&prog, BPF_REG_0, 0, (u32) nr_regs);
    emit_stx(&prog, BPF_DW, BPF_REG_FP, BPF_REG_0, -nregs_off);

This sets ctx[-1] to a small value like 0x0000000000000006, with the high
bits all zero. When the inline code executes:

    off = (ctx[-1] >> 9) & 0xFF  --> off = 0

The function then returns &ctx[-0] = ctx itself, which points to the
function arguments instead of the session cookie.

Is there a missing dependency on a later commit in the series? Commit
983968c39241 ("bpf,x86: add fsession support for x86_64") appears to add
the trampoline code that stores the cookie offset, but it comes after this
commit in the patch series.
