Hi Masoud,

Please wait some time, say 24 hours, for human reviews before sending
the next revision.

Probably, we can add these two macros in include/linux/bpf.h.

#define BPF_EXIST_FLAGS (BPF_EXIST | BPF_NOEXIST)
#define BPF_CPU_FLAGS (BPF_F_CPU | BPF_F_ALL_CPUS)

Then, this 'if' can be simplified to

if (unlikely(((map_flags & BPF_EXIST_FLAGS) == BPF_EXIST_FLAGS) ||
	     ((u32)map_flags & ~(BPF_EXIST_FLAGS | BPF_CPU_FLAGS)))

Also simplify htab_map_check_update_flags() in the next patch by the
same way.

Thanks,
Leon
