My understanding is the change in this patch should not affect the hashmap 
control result, so the above +/- ~1% change could be mostly noise.

The last one has a big difference. Did you run it a couple of times without the 
change and check if the result was consistent ?

Is it understood why the slow down here? The same goes for the "num_maps: 32" 
case above but not as bad as here.

The important_hits is very little in this case?

Is noinline needed ?

The selftest is trying to catch recursion. The change here cannot test the same 
thing because the slowpath will never be hit in the test_progs.  I don't have a 
better idea for now also.

It has a conflict with the bpf-next tree also. Was the patch created against an 
internal tree?
