If alloc_ftrace_hash() fails here under memory pressure, the function
returns -ENOMEM without detaching any trampolines or releasing their
refcounts.
The caller in the next patch (bpf_tracing_multi_link_release) does:
WARN_ON_ONCE(bpf_trampoline_multi_detach(link->prog, tr_link));
This drops the error on the floor. The link struct is then freed by
bpf_tracing_multi_link_dealloc(), but the trampolines remain attached
with elevated refcounts, permanently leaking them and their ftrace
hooks.
Would it make sense to pre-allocate these hashes during
bpf_trampoline_multi_attach() and store them in the link struct so
that the detach path cannot fail?

This isn't a bug, but the comment says "3 points" and then describes
two scenarios in two bullet points. Maybe say "2 scenarios" or split
the first bullet into two to match?
