Currently the following code in check_and_init_map_value() *(struct bpf_timer *)(dst + map->timer_off) = (struct bpf_timer){}; can help generate bpf_timer definition in vmlinuxBTF. But the code above may not zero the whole structure due to anonymour members and that code will be replaced by memset in the subsequent patch and bpf_timer definition will disappear from vmlinuxBTF. Let us emit the type explicitly so bpf program can continue to use it from vmlinux.h.

To avoid conflict with bpf-next can you move this #include a bit up? I suspect having it right after linux/bpf.h will make this patch applicable to both bpf and bpf-next. Which means there will be no conflicts when bpf merges with bpf-next.
