> The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
> 
> The main changes are:
> 
> 1) Add sharing of BPF objects within one ASIC: this allows for reuse of
>    the same program on multiple ports of a device, and therefore gains
>    better code store utilization. On top of that, this now also enables
>    sharing of maps between programs attached to different ports of a
>    device, from Jakub.
> 
> 2) Cleanup in libbpf and bpftool's Makefile to reduce unneeded feature
>    detections and unused variable exports, also from Jakub.
> 
> 3) First batch of RCU annotation fixes in prog array handling, i.e.
>    there are several __rcu markers which are not correct as well as
>    some of the RCU handling, from Roman.
> 
> 4) Two fixes in BPF sample files related to checking of the prog_cnt
>    upper limit from sample loader, from Dan.
> 
> 5) Minor cleanup in sockmap to remove a set but not used variable,
>    from Colin.
