v3 cover Add cross-compilation support to eBPF samples

These patches fix issues seen when cross-compiling eBPF samples on arm64. Compared to [1], I dropped the controversial inline-asm patch pending further discussion on the right way to do it. However these patches are still a step in the right direction and I wanted them to get in before the more controversial bit.
