After this commit:
bpf: Support variable length array in tracing programs (9c5f8a1008a1)
Trace programs can access variable length array, but for structure
type. This patch adds support for integer type.

Example:
Hook load_balance
struct sched_domain {
	...
	unsigned long span[];
}

The access: sd->span[0].
