I wonder if you meant to have one my_tid __weak in .bss and another
my_tid __weak in .rodata. Or just my_tid in .bss and syscall_id in
.rodata?

If the former (mixing ELF sections across definitions of the same
symbol), then it's disallowed right now. libbpf will error out on
mismatched sections. I tested this with normal compilation, it does
work and the final section is the section of the winner.

But I think that's quite confusing, actually, so I'm going to leave it
disallowed for now. E.g., if one file expects a read-write variable
and another expects that same variable to be read-only, and the winner
ends up being read-only one, then the file expecting read-write will
essentially have incorrect code (and will be rejected by BPF verifier,
if anything attempts to write). So I think it's better to reject it at
the linking time.

But I'll do one (my_tid) as .bss, and another (syscall_id) as .rodata.
