[PATCHv2 0/3] perf/bpf: Replace deprecated code

[Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>]

hi,
the original patchset [1] removed the whole perf functionality
with the hope nobody's using that. But it turned out there's
actually bpf script using prologue functionality, so there
might be users of this.

This patchset gets rid of and adds workaround (and keeps the
current functionality) for following deprecated libbpf
functions/struct:

  bpf_program__set_priv
  bpf_program__priv
  bpf_map__set_priv
  bpf_map__priv
  bpf_program__set_prep
  bpf_program__nth_fd
  struct bpf_prog_prep_result

Basically it implements workarounds suggested by Andrii in [2].

I tested with script from examples/bpf that are working for me:

  examples/bpf/hello.c
  examples/bpf/5sec.c

The rest seem to fail for various reasons even without this
change..  they seem unmaintained for some time now, but I might
have wrong setup.

Also available in here:

  perf/depre

thanks,
jirka
