I'd say that we should add kfuncs which are only included in vmlinux.h
under certain configurations. Obviously stuff like CONFIG_BPF=y can be
presumed but there're tons of configs options which may be disabled on a
system and it still makes sense to compile and run at least a part of
test_progs on them.

This way, we're preventing people to build and therefore run *any*
test_progs on systems which do not have all the configs required in
selftests/bpf/config. Running selftests on such systems may reveal bugs
not captured by the CI so I think that it may be eventually beneficial
for everyone.

WDYT?
