Nope, its basically load coverage (ASSERT_OK(err, "skel_load") in test_success()),
meaning we make sure the assertion on patch 4/6 in bpf_convert_ctx_accesses()
doesn't trigger if this is forgotten to get rewritten as probed pointer:

         if (verifier_bug_if(bpf_may_fault_on_deref(ptr_type), env,
                             "access to a fault prone pointer is not rewritten as a probed one"))
                 return -EFAULT;
