Arrays of progs are underlying using regular arrays, but they can only
be updated from a syscall.
Therefore, they should be safe to use while in a sleepable context.

This is required to be able to call bpf_tail_call() from a sleepable
tracing bpf program.

Hi,

a small patch to allow to have:

```
SEC("fmod_ret.s/__hid_bpf_tail_call_sleepable")
int BPF_PROG(hid_tail_call_sleepable, struct hid_bpf_ctx *hctx)
{
	bpf_tail_call(ctx, &hid_jmp_table, hctx->index);

	return 0;
}
```

This should allow me to add bpf hooks to functions that communicate with
the hardware.

Cheers,
Benjamin
