Should we check tgt_prog->aux->func[subprog]->is_func? Or, tgt_prog->aux->tail_call_reachable
is enough?

I think tgt_prog->aux->func[subprog]->is_func is required to check. It's because it's a bug
about subprog instead of tgt_prog.

In check_attach_btf_id():

bool tail_call_ctx;
// ...
ret = bpf_check_attach_target(&env->log, prog, tgt_prog, btf_id, &tgt_info, &tail_call_ctx);
// ...
tr->flags = (tail_call_ctx ? BPF_TRAMP_F_TAIL_CALL_CTX : 0);

How about changing like this? However, it's bad to change bpf_check_attach_target() declaration.

I'll trim it.

Thanks,
