Is it safe to make __bpf_testmod_ops const here? In bpf_testmod_init(),
this struct is modified at runtime:

    tramp = (void **)&__bpf_testmod_ops.tramp_1;
    while (tramp <= (void **)&__bpf_testmod_ops.tramp_40)
        *tramp++ = bpf_testmod_tramp;

Writing to a const-qualified object is undefined behavior and may cause a
protection fault when the compiler places this in read-only memory. Would
the module fail to load on systems where .rodata is actually read-only?
