From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxx> bpf_free_used_maps() or close(map_fd) will trigger map_free callback. bpf_free_used_maps() is called after bpf prog is no longer executing: bpf_prog_put->call_rcu->bpf_prog_free->bpf_free_used_maps. Hence there is no need to call synchronize_rcu() to protect map elements.
