not func_md, don't invent new names, "func_meta" (but it's also so
backwards that you have stack offsets as positive... and it's not even
in verifier's stack slots, just bytes... very confusing to me)

was this supposed to be BPF_TRAMP_M_IS_RETURN?... and why didn't AI catch this?

func_meta conceptually is a collection of bit fields, so using +/-
feels weird, use | and &, more in line with working with bits?

(also you defined that BPF_TRAMP_M_NR_ARGS but you are not using it
consistently...)
