I did run the tests, and saw no more breakages after applying my patches
than before. Which didn't catch this, because this is the current state
of bpf-next selftests:
# ./test_progs | grep FAIL
test_lookup_update:FAIL:map1_leak inner_map1 leaked!
#10/1 lookup_update:FAIL
#10 btf_map_in_map:FAIL
configure_stack:FAIL:BPF load failed; run with -vv for more info
#72 sk_assign:FAIL
test_test_bpffs:FAIL:bpffs test failed 255
#96 test_bpffs:FAIL
Summary: 113/844 PASSED, 14 SKIPPED, 4 FAILED
The test_bpffs failure happens because the umh is missing from the
.config; and when I tried to fix this I ended up with:
[..]
CC [M] kernel/bpf/preload/bpf_preload_kern.o
Auto-detecting system features:
... libelf: [ OFF ]
... zlib: [ OFF ]
... bpf: [ OFF ]
No libelf found
...which I just put down to random breakage, turned off the umh and
continued on my way (ignoring the failed test). Until you wrote this I
did not suspect this would be something I needed to pay attention to.
Now that you did mention it, I'll obviously go investigate some more, my
point is just that in this instance it's not accurate to assume I just
didn't run the tests... :)

That is completely fine if the tests are working in the first place. And
even when they're not (like in this case), pointing it out is fine, and
I'll obviously go investigate. But please at least reply to the email,
not all of us watch patchwork regularly.
(I'll fix all your other comments and respin; thanks!)
