Thanks for the fix and test.

This bpf_map->inner_map_meta requires CO-RE. It works now but could be fragile 
in different platform and in the future bpf_map changes. Take a look at the 
map_ptr_kern.c which uses "__attribute__((preserve_access_index))" at the 
"struct bpf_map".

Please translate this verifer test into a proper bpf prog in C code such that it 
can use the CO-RE in libbpf.  It should run under test_progs instead of 
test_verifier. The bpf prog can include the "vmlinux.h" to get the 
"__attribute__((preserve_access_index))" for free.  Take a look at 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221207201648.2990661-2-andrii@xxxxxxxxxx/ which 
has example on how to check verifier message in test_progs.
