Thanks, I will fix for the next version.

No reason, I suppose. I was just exporting because bpf_prog_get is;
I'll drop it for the next version.

I needed to call bpf_new_fd from kernel/seccomp.c, which it seems
shouldn't be able to reference bpf_prog_fops, which is why I added the
little "proxy". If we change the api to something like,

bpf_new_fd("bpf-map", &bpf_map_fops, map);
bpf_new_fd("bpf-prog", &bpf_prog_fops, prog);

I'd need access to bpf_prog_fops again. What about changing the name
to bpf_new_prog_fd?
