I added it here just to check if the offset calculations (map->spin_lock_off)
are correctly happening for these new maps.

As mentioned in the updates, I do intend to generalize
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/map_tests/sk_storage_map.c which already has
 the threading logic to exercise bpf_spin_lock in storage maps.

Hope this is an okay plan?
