Xu Kuohai 535a57a7ff bpf: Remove is_valid_bpf_tramp_flags()
Before generating bpf trampoline, x86 calls is_valid_bpf_tramp_flags()
to check the input flags. This check is architecture independent.
So, to be consistent with x86, arm64 should also do this check
before generating bpf trampoline.

However, the BPF_TRAMP_F_XXX flags are not used by user code and the
flags argument is almost constant at compile time, so this run time
check is a bit redundant.

Remove is_valid_bpf_tramp_flags() and add some comments to the usage of
BPF_TRAMP_F_XXX flags, as suggested by Alexei.
