Ok, so CLASS(fd, f) won't work just yet because of peculiar
__bpf_map_get() contract: if it gets valid struct fd but it doesn't
contain a valid struct bpf_map, then __bpf_map_get() does fdput()
internally. In all other cases the caller has to do fdput() and
returned struct bpf_map's refcount has to be bumped by the caller
(__bpf_map_get() doesn't do that, I guess that's why it's
double-underscored).

I think the reason it was done was just a convenience to not have to
get/put bpf_map for temporary uses (and instead rely on file's
reference keeping bpf_map alive), plus we have bpf_map_inc() and
bpf_map_inc_uref() variants, so in some cases we need to bump just
refcount, and in some both user and normal refcounts.

So can't use CLASS(fd, ...) without some more clean up.

Alexei, how about changing __bpf_map_get(struct fd f) to
__bpf_map_get_from_fd(int ufd), doing fdget/fdput internally, and
always returning bpf_map with (normal) refcount bumped (if successful,
of course). We can then split bpf_map_inc_with_uref() into just
bpf_map_inc() and bpf_map_inc_uref(), and callers will be able to do
extra uref-only increment, if necessary.

I can do that as a pre-patch, there are about 15 callers, so not too
much work to clean this up. Let me know.
