Simplify the logic that selects bpf_prog_pack_size, and always use (PMD_SIZE * num_possible_nodes()). This is a good tradeoff, as most of the performance benefit observed is from less direct map fragmentation [0]. Also, module_alloc(4MB) may not allocate 4MB aligned memory. Therefore, we cannot use (ptr & bpf_prog_pack_mask) to find the correct address of bpf_prog_pack. Fix this by checking the header address falls in the range of pack->ptr and (pack->ptr + bpf_prog_pack_size).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
