No need to use libbpf's implementation. We already have
kallsyms_find() in prog_tests/ksyms.c and a combination of
load_kallsyms() + ksym_get_addr() in trace_helpers.c. It would be good
to switch to one implementation for both prog_tests/ksyms.c and this
one.

You didn't test accessing any of the members of runqueues, because BTF
only has per-CPU variables, right? Adding global/static variables was
adding too much data to BTF or something like that, is that right?
