perf bpf: Use __builtin_preserve_field_info for GCC compatibility



When exploring building bpf_skel with GCC's BPF support, there was a
build failure because of bpf_core_field_exists vs the mem_hops bitfield:
```

cc1: error: argument is not a field access
```

___bpf_field_ref1 was adapted for GCC in 12bbcf8e
but the trick added for compatibility in 3a8b8fc3
isn't compatible with that as an address is used as an argument.

Workaround this by calling __builtin_preserve_field_info directly as the
bpf_core_field_exists macro does, but without the ___bpf_field_ref use.
