Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 1/5] bpf: make MAX_BPF_FUNC_ARGS 14

From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@...cent.com>

According to the current kernel version, below is a statistics of the
function arguments count:

argument count | FUNC_PROTO count
7              | 367
8              | 196
9              | 71
10             | 43
11             | 22
12             | 10
13             | 15
14             | 4
15             | 0
16             | 1

It's hard to statisics the function count, so I use FUNC_PROTO in the btf
of vmlinux instead. The function with 16 arguments is ZSTD_buildCTable(),
which I think can be ignored.

Therefore, let's make the maximum of function arguments count 14. It used
to be 12, but it seems that there is no harm to make it big enough.
