This can work, but I think is_valid_dst() is better, as its internal inspection
of dst is more thorough.

As I mentioned earlier, because the value of "ri->map" is NULL, even if it can
be executed to __bpf_xdp_redirect_map(), it is meaningless because "ri->map" is
used internally to set "ri->tgt_value".
