Increase the maximum stack size accessible to BPF program to 768 bytes.
This is done so that gen_loader can use 94 additional fds for kfunc BTFs
that it passes in to fd_array from the remaining space available for the
loader_stack struct to expand.

Yikes.
I guess you meant as RFC, right? You didn't really propose
to increase prog stack size just for that, right?
Yes, and right, it's ugly :/.

There are few other ways to do that.
For example:
A: rename map_fd[] into fds[] and store both map and btf FDs in there.
B: move map and btf FDs into data instead of stack.
Both are great suggestions, I thought about A but not B, but it will be better
(even though it requires more changes, we can do full 256 BTF fds using B).
Thanks!
