Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/2] libbpf: make use of BTF through sysfs

Now that kernel's BTF is exposed through sysfs at well-known location, attempt
to load it first as a target BTF for the purpose of BPF CO-RE relocations.

Patch #1 is a follow-up patch to rename /sys/kernel/btf/kernel into
/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux.
Patch #2 adds ability to load raw BTF contents from sysfs and expands the list
of locations libbpf attempts to load vmlinux BTF from.

Andrii Nakryiko (2):
  btf: rename /sys/kernel/btf/kernel into /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux
  libbpf: attempt to load kernel BTF from sysfs first
