Right, there was a new conflict in bpf-next, but you managed it :)

Hmm, this is not what I would have expected. Anyway, "return true"
would be a valid solution too, but...

Thanks a lot. Unfortunately, if you saw the discussion with Alexei in
patch 6/17, you'll see that there is a push toward a slightly
different implementation.
I had a meeting with Alexei, and a few other BPF folks yesterday, and
they convinced me that this series is implementing a BPF feature the
"old way", and that we should aim at having HID using standard BPF
facilities instead of having HID messing up with bpf-core.
This will be beneficial in the long term as we won't depend on BPF to
be able to add new UAPI, being BPF calls or functions.
I'll reply in more detail on 6/17.
Cheers,
Benjamin
