Subject: [PATCH v6 bpf-next 0/3] Add a new API libbpf_num_possible_cpus()

Getting number of possible CPUs is commonly used for per-CPU BPF maps
and perf_event_maps. Add a new API libbpf_num_possible_cpus() that
helps user with per-CPU related operations and remove duplicate
implementations in bpftool and selftests.

v2: Save errno before calling pr_warning in case it is changed.
v3: Make sure libbpf_num_possible_cpus never returns 0 so that user only
    has to check if ret value < 0.
v4: Fix error code when reading 0 bytes from possible CPU file.
v5: Fix selftests compliation issue.
v6: Split commit to reuse libbpf_num_possible_cpus() into two commits:
    One commit to remove bpf_util.h from test BPF C programs.
    One commit to reuse libbpf_num_possible_cpus() in bpftools 
    and bpf_util.h.


Hechao Li (3):
  bpf: add a new API libbpf_num_possible_cpus()
  selftests/bpf: remove bpf_util.h from BPF C progs
  bpf: use libbpf_num_possible_cpus internally
