Yeah, this will go to vmalloc.c.

And this goes to some module.c file(s). I am not quite sure whether we
need __weak attr or not.

I don't really like it either.
Another way to do this is to test the required size for bpf_prog_pack
in BPF code, something like the following. The pro of this version is
that we don't need changes in vmalloc and module code.
