This, and ptrs and pptrs, should be flexible arrays. But they are in a
union, and unions don't support flexible arrays. Putting each of them
into anonymous struct field also doesn't work:

/data/users/andriin/linux/include/linux/bpf.h:820:18: error: flexible
array member in a struct with no named members
struct { void *ptrs[] __aligned(8); };

So it probably has to stay this way. Is there a way to silence UBSAN
for this particular case?
