Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/3] Single-cpu updates for per-cpu maps

Currently, userspace programs have to update the values of all CPUs at
once when updating per-cpu maps.  This limitation prevents the update of a
single CPU's value without the risk of missing concurrent updates on other
CPU's values.

The first patch allows userspace to update the value of a specific CPU in
per-cpu maps.  The second and last patches add test cases and support in
bpftool respectively.

  bpf: Single-cpu updates for per-cpu maps
  selftests/bpf: Tests for single-cpu updates of per-cpu maps
  bpftool: Support single-cpu updates for per-cpu maps
