Added Martin's ack and applied to bpf-next. Please carry over received
Acks between revisions.
Ah, sorry, forgot about it :-(

It's also a good practice to separate selftest from the kernel (or
libbpf) changes, unless kernel change doesn't immediately break
selftest. Please consider doing that for the future.
I've actually seen some back and forth on this one. I used to split
them in the past (assuming it makes it easy to do the
backports/cherry-picks), but I remember at some point it was
suggested not to split them for small changes like this.

Might be a good idea to document this (when and if to separate libbpf/selftests)
on bpf_devel_QA.rst

I also just noticed that test_netcnt isn't part of test_progs. It
would be great to migrate it under the common test_progs
infrastructure. We've been steadily moving towards that, but there are
still a bunch of tests that are not run in CI.
SG, I might do a follow up on this one.
