bpf: libbpf: remove map name retry from bpf_create_map_xattr
Instead, check for a newly created caps.name bpf_object capability. If kernel doesn't support names, don't specify the attribute. See commit 23499442c319 ("bpf: libbpf: retry map creation without the name") for rationale. Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@google.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
