That seems like an even more of an argument to keep mutex per sockmap.
It won't add a lot of memory, but it is conceptually cleaner, as each
sockmap instance (and corresponding links) are completely independent,
even from a locking perspective.

But I can't say I feel very strongly about this.

If you keep that global sockmap_prog_update_mutex then I'd probably
reuse that one here for simplicity (and named it a bit more
generically, "sockmap_mutex" or something like that, just like we have
global "cgroup_mutex").

ah, ok, that's BPF_F_REPLACE case. See, it's confusing that we have
this logic split between multiple places, in dev_xdp_attach() it's a
bit more centralized.

ah, ok, its another sockmap-specific convention, np
