Well, I could bundle bpf_helpers move and fixing up selftests in one
commit, but I think it just makes commit unnecessarily big and
convoluted. BPF_CORE_READ in previous form was ever only used by
selftests, so it was never "released" per se, so it seems fine to do
it this way, but let me know if you disagree.
