Subject: [PATCH 0/3] bpf: allow zero-initialising hash map seed

This patch set adds a new flag BPF_F_ZERO_SEED, which allows
forcing the seed used by hash maps to zero. This makes
it possible to write deterministic tests.

Based on an off-list conversation with Alexei Starovoitov and
Daniel Borkmann.

  tools: sync linux/bpf.h
  tools: add selftest for BPF_F_ZERO_SEED
