[PATCH bpf-next v5 7/8] libbpf: Use .struct_ops.link section to indicate a struct_ops with a link.

2023-03-08T00:51:18Z

Flags a struct_ops is to back a bpf_link by putting it to the
".struct_ops.link" section. Once it is flagged, the created
struct_ops can be used to create a bpf_link or update a bpf_link that
has been backed by another struct_ops.
