xdp_return_frame_bulk() needs to pass a xdp_buff
to __xdp_return().

strlcpy got converted to strscpy but here it makes no
functional difference, so just keep the right code.

<title>tools/bpftool: Fix PID fetching with a lot of results</title>

<content type='text'>
In case of having so many PID results that they don't fit into a singe page
(4096) bytes, bpftool will erroneously conclude that it got corrupted data due
to 4096 not being a multiple of struct pid_iter_entry, so the last entry will
be partially truncated. Fix this by sizing the buffer to fit exactly N entries
with no truncation in the middle of record.

pull-request: bpf-next 2020-12-03

The main changes are:

1) Support BTF in kernel modules, from Andrii.

2) Introduce preferred busy-polling, from Björn.

In case of working with module's split BTF from /sys/kernel/btf/*,
auto-substitute /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux as the base BTF. This makes using
bpftool with module BTFs faster and simpler.

Commit 47c09d6a9f67("bpftool: Introduce "prog profile" command")
introduced "bpftool prog profile" command which can be used
to profile bpf program with metrics like # of instructions,

This patch added support for itlb_misses and dtlb_misses.
During an internal bpf program performance evaluation,
I found these two metrics are also very useful. The following
is an example output:

 $ bpftool prog profile id 324 duration 3 cycles itlb_misses

           1885029 run_cnt
        5134686073 cycles
            306893 itlb_misses

 $ bpftool prog profile id 324 duration 3 cycles dtlb_misses

           1827382 run_cnt
        4943593648 cycles
           5975636 dtlb_misses

 $ bpftool prog profile id 324 duration 3 cycles llc_misses

           1836527 run_cnt
        5019612972 cycles
           4161041 llc_misses

From the above, we can see quite some dtlb misses, 3 dtlb misses
perf prog run. This might be something worth further investigation.
