Subject: [bpf-next v2 PATCH 0/3] bpf: improvements to xdp_fwd sample

V2: Addressed issues point out by Yonghong Song
 - Please ACK patch 2/3 again
 - Added ACKs and reviewed-by to other patches

This patchset is focused on improvements for XDP forwarding sample
named xdp_fwd, which leverage the existing FIB routing tables as
described in LPC2018[1] talk by David Ahern.

The primary motivation is to illustrate how Toke's recent work
improves usability of XDP_REDIRECT via lookups in devmap. The other
patches are to help users understand the sample.

I have more improvements to xdp_fwd, but those might requires changes
to libbpf.  Thus, sending these patches first as they are isolated.

      samples/bpf: make xdp_fwd more practically usable via devmap lookup
      samples/bpf: xdp_fwd explain bpf_fib_lookup return codes
