This won't work. You will need to append to the end of data structure
to keep it backward compatibility.

Also, recent kernel has a kfunc bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() which converts
a ctx to a kernel ctx and you can then use tracing-coding-style to
access those fields. In this particular case, you can do

   struct sk_reuseport_kern *kctx = bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx(ctx);

We have

struct sk_reuseport_kern {
        struct sk_buff *skb;
        struct sock *sk;
        struct sock *selected_sk;
        struct sock *migrating_sk;
        void *data_end;
        u32 hash;
        u32 reuseport_id;
        bool bind_inany;
};

through sk and skb pointer, you should be access the fields presented in
this patch. You can access more fields too.

So using bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx(), there is no need for more uapi changes.
Please give a try.
