KaFai Wan 82967254a9 bpf: Allow fall back to interpreter for programs with stack size <= 512
[ Upstream commit df0cb5cb50 ]

OpenWRT users reported regression on ARMv6 devices after updating to latest
HEAD, where tcpdump filter:

tcpdump "not ether host 3c37121a2b3c and not ether host 184ecbca2a3a \
and not ether host 14130b4d3f47 and not ether host f0f61cf440b7 \
and not ether host a84b4dedf471 and not ether host d022be17e1d7 \
and not ether host 5c497967208b and not ether host 706655784d5b"

fails with warning: "Kernel filter failed: No error information"
when using config:
 # CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set
 CONFIG_BPF_JIT_DEFAULT_ON=y

The issue arises because commits:
1. "bpf: Fix array bounds error with may_goto" changed default runtime to
   __bpf_prog_ret0_warn when jit_requested = 1
2. "bpf: Avoid __bpf_prog_ret0_warn when jit fails" returns error when
   jit_requested = 1 but jit fails

This change restores interpreter fallback capability for BPF programs with
stack size <= 512 bytes when jit fails.
