Just one additional note, at least 478a535ae54a ("bpftool: Mount bpffs
on provided dir instead of parent dir") would be a reqisite where the
code was refactored introducing create_and_mount_bpffs_dir() (but
won't apply cleanly to 6.1.y). But are more requisites needed?

Should it be safest to just revert the breaking commit for the bpftool
build?

Salvatore
