samples/bpf: export map_data[] for more info on maps
Giving *_user.c side tools access to map_data[] provides easier access to information on the maps being loaded. Still provide the guarantee that the order maps are being defined in inside the _kern.c file corresponds with the order in the array. Now user tools are not blind, but can inspect and verify the maps that got loaded from the ELF binary. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
