[ Upstream commit 6c6b4146deb12d20f42490d5013f2043df942161 ]
Previously, re-using pinned DEVMAP maps would always fail, because get_map_info on a DEVMAP always returns flags with BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG set, but BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG being set on a map during creation is invalid.
Thus, ignore the BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG flag in the flags returned from get_map_info when checking for compatibility with an existing DEVMAP.
The same problem is handled in a third-party ebpf library: - https://github.com/cilium/ebpf/issues/925 - https://github.com/cilium/ebpf/pull/930
