The ns_bpf_qdisc selftest triggers a kernel panic:

The bpf_fifo_dequeue prog returns a skb which is a pointer.
The pointer is treated as a 32bit value and sign extend to
64bit in epilogue. This behavior is right for most bpf prog
types but wrong for struct ops which requires RISC-V ABI.

So let's sign extend struct ops return values according to
the return value spec in function model.
