BPF side tld_get_data() currently may return garbage when tld_data_u is
not aligned to page_size. This can happen when small amount of memory
is allocated for tld_data_u. The misalignment is supposed to be allowed
and the BPF side will use tld_data_u->start to reference the tld_data_u
in a page. However, since "start" is within tld_data_u, there is no way
to know the correct "start" in the first place. As a result, BPF
programs will see garbage data. The selftest did not catch this since
it tries to allocate the maximum amount of data possible (i.e., a page)
such that tld_data_u->start is always correct.
Fix it by moving tld_data_u->start to tld_data_map->start. The original
field is now renamed as unused instead of removing it because BPF side
tld_get_data() views off = 0 returned from tld_fetch_key() as
uninitialized.
