Currently generic_map_update_batch will reject all valid command flags for
BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM other than BPF_F_LOCK, which is overkill, map updating

Please also add a BPF selftest along with this extension which exercises the
batch update and validates the behavior for the various flags which are now enabled.
Also, please discuss the semantics in the commit msg.. errors due to BPF_EXIST and
BPF_NOEXIST will cause bpf_map_update_value() to fail and then break the loop. It's
probably fine given batch.count (cp) will be propagated back to user space to tell
how many elements could actually get updated.
