LGTM.

Wanted to leave comment that "map types are waiting" is outdated after
patch #1 and then recalled map-in-map complexities. So depending if
I'm right or wrong regarding issue in patch #1, this would stay or has
to be removed.

nit: message is a bit misleading. per-cpu array is also an array, yet
is not supported.
