I was not quick enough to reply before this got merged, sorry about that.

This will break situations when we want to pass extra flags to the
libbpf sub-make from the command line, e.g. to build samples as PIE:

    $ make TPROGS_USER_CFLAGS="-fpie" TPROGS_USER_LDFLAGS="-pie"
    [...]
    /usr/bin/ld: /bpf/samples/bpf/libbpf/libbpf.a(libbpf-in.o):
relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when
making a PIE object; recompile with -fPIE
    /usr/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value

I think that we should add

COMMON_CFLAGS = $(TPROGS_USER_CFLAGS)

somewhere to the top of the Makefile.
