Subject[PATCHv2 perf/core 6/7] tools lib bpf: Add bpf_map__pin()
Date
Add a new API to pin a BPF map to the filesystem. The user can
specify the path full path within a BPF filesystem to pin the map.

Signed-off-by: Joe Stringer <joe@ovn.org>
---
v2: Don't automount BPF filesystem
Split program, map, object pinning into separate APIs and separate
patches.
