selftests/bpf: Harden cpu flags test for lru_percpu_hash map
CI occasionally reports failures in the
percpu_alloc/cpu_flag_lru_percpu_hash selftest, for example:
First test_progs failure (test_progs_no_alu32-x86_64-llvm-21):
#264/15 percpu_alloc/cpu_flag_lru_percpu_hash
...
test_percpu_map_op_cpu_flag:FAIL:bpf_map_lookup_batch value on specified cpu unexpected bpf_map_lookup_batch value on specified cpu: actual 0 != expected 3735929054
The unexpected value indicates that an element was removed from the map.
However, the test never calls delete_elem(), so the only possible cause
is LRU eviction.
This can happen when the current task migrates to another CPU: an
update_elem() triggers eviction because there is no available LRU node
on local freelist and global freelist.
Harden the test against this behavior by provisioning sufficient spare
elements. Set max_entries to 'nr_cpus * 2' and restrict the test to using
the first nr_cpus entries, ensuring that updates do not spuriously trigger
LRU eviction.
