Hi Sean,

Please find below some nitpicks on the documentation for the two helpers.

Could you please use bold RST markup for constants and function names?
Typically for BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAWIR_EVENT here and the enum below.

This documentation is intended to be compiled as a man page. Could you
please use a complete sentence here?
Also, this could do with additional markup as well: **struct
bpf_rawir_event**.

The "Return" lines here and in the second helper use space indent
instead as tabs (as all other lines do). Would you mind fixing it for
consistency?

Other helpers use just "0" in that case, but I do not really mind.
Out of curiosity, do you have anything specific in mind for changing the
return value here in the future?

Please use a complete sentence here as well, if you do not mind.
