I'm trying to track this down, not being overly familiar with this bit of
code.

We entered bpf_object__create_map with map->inner_map potentially set and
then here we are going to zfree(&map->inner_map). I'm trying to track
down if this is problematic, I guess not? But seems like we could
also free a map here that we didn't create from this call in the above
logic.

        if (bpf_map_type__is_map_in_map(def->type) && map->inner_map) {
                if (obj->gen_loader)
                        map->inner_map->fd = -1;
                bpf_map__destroy(map->inner_map);
                zfree(&map->inner_map);
        }


Also not sure here, sorry didn't have time to follow too thoroughly
will check again later. But, the 'map->inner_map->fd = -1' is going to
cause bpf_map__destroy to bypass the close(fd) as I understand it.
So are we leaking an fd if the inner_map->fd is coming from above
create? Or maybe never happens because obj->gen_loader is NULL?

Thanks!
