Multiple files/programs in `tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/` still heavily use the `CHECK` macro, even when better `ASSERT_` alternatives are available.
As it was already pointed out by Yonghong Song [1] in the bpf selftests the use of the ASSERT_* series of macros is preferred over the CHECK macro.
This patchset replaces the usage of `CHECK(` macros to the equivalent `ASSERT_` family of macros in the following prog_tests: - bind_perm.c - bpf_obj_id.c - bpf_tcp_ca.c - vmlinux.c

Changes in v3: - Addressed the following points mentioned by Yonghong Song - Improved `bpf_map_lookup_elem` assertion in bpf_tcp_ca. - Replaced assertion introduced in v2 with one that checks `thread_ret` instead of `pthread_join`. This ensures that `server`'s return value (thread_ret) is the one being checked, as oposed to `pthread_join`'s return value, since the latter one is less likely to fail.
Changes in v2: - Fixed pthread_join assertion that broke the previous test
