Yeah, I think so. We'd need to do something similar to your
sock_common work for PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF_OR_NULL. The fact that the
pointer is read only makes it a bit more difficult I think. After
that, a user could just plug the key into map_update_elem directly.
Alternatively, allow specialising map_ops per context.
