I have no plan to place it in fast path.
Because what I concerned is the TCP abnomal events, which should be
not in the fast path.
However if we want to place it in the fast path, the code should be as bellow,

if (BPF_SOCK_OPS_TEST_FLAG(tcp_sk(sk), BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATS_CB_FLAG))
    tcp_call_bpf(sk, BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATS_CB, 1, &mib_idx);

That's why I do it like this.
