From: Martin KaFai Lau <martin.lau@xxxxxxxxxx> 'struct bpf_local_storage_elem' has an unused 56 byte padding at the end due to struct's cache-line alignment requirement. This padding space is overlapped by storage value contents, so if we use sizeof() to calculate the total size, we overinflate it by 56 bytes. Use offsetof() instead to calculate more exact memory use.
