Merge branch 'introduce BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS'
Song Liu says:
====================
This set introduces BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS to perf event array for better
sharing of perf event. By default, perf event array removes the perf event
when the map fd used to add the event is closed. With BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS
set, however, the perf event will stay in the array until it is removed, or
the map is closed.
