Subject: [PATCH v2 bpf-next] bpf: fix bpf_prog_pack build for ppc64_defconfig

bpf_prog_pack causes build error with powerpc ppc64_defconfig:

kernel/bpf/core.c:830:23: error: variably modified 'bitmap' at file scope
  830 |         unsigned long bitmap[BITS_TO_LONGS(BPF_PROG_CHUNK_COUNT)];
      |                       ^~~~~~

This is because the marco expands as:

unsigned long bitmap[((((((1UL) << (16 + __pte_index_size)) / (1 << 6))) \
     + ((sizeof(long) * 8)) - 1) / ((sizeof(long) * 8)))];

where __pte_index_size is a global variable.

Fix it by turning bitmap into a 0-length array.
