No, that's not what I meant.

So, what you're doing right now to create a bpf token file descriptor is:

return anon_inode_getfd(BPF_TOKEN_INODE_NAME, &bpf_token_fops, token, O_CLOEXEC);

which is using the anonymous inode infrastructure. That is an entirely
different filesystems (glossing over details) that is best leveraged for
stuff like kvm fds and other stuff that doesn't need or have its own
filesytem implementation.

But you do have your own filesystem implementation so why abuse another
one to create bpf token fds when they can just be created directly from
the bpffs instance.

IOW, everything stays the same apart from the fact that bpf token fds
are actually file descriptors referring to a detached bpffs file instead
of an anonymous inode file. IOW, bpf tokens are actual bpffs objects
tied to a bpffs instance.
