Subject: [RESEND PATCH bpf-next v4 7/9] bpf: Add common attr support for map_create
Currently, many 'BPF_MAP_CREATE' failures return '-EINVAL' without
providing any explanation to user space.
With the extended BPF syscall support, detailed error messages can now be
reported. This allows users to understand the specific reason for a
failed map creation, rather than just receiving a generic '-EINVAL'.
