I think it will conflict with glibc.
It will also conflict with systemd that uses bpf() from glibc or does:

#if !HAVE_BPF
static inline int missing_bpf(int cmd, union bpf_attr *attr, size_t size) {
#ifdef __NR_bpf
        return (int) syscall(__NR_bpf, cmd, attr, size);
#else
        errno = ENOSYS;
        return -1;
#endif
}

#  define bpf missing_bpf

why take a risk of renaming?
