bpf: Do not allow btf_ctx_access with __int128 types



To ensure btf_ctx_access() is safe the verifier checks that the BTF
arg type is an int, enum, or pointer. When the function does the
BTF arg lookup it uses the calculation 'arg = off / 8'  using the
fact that registers are 8B. This requires that the first arg is
in the first reg, the second in the second, and so on. However,
for __int128 the arg will consume two registers by default LLVM
implementation. So this will cause the arg layout assumed by the
'arg = off / 8' calculation to be incorrect.

Because __int128 is uncommon this patch applies the easiest fix and
will force int types to be sizeof(u64) or smaller so that they will
fit in a single register.

v2: remove unneeded parens per Andrii's feedback
