This commit refactors the existing ibumad program with libbpf bpf
loader. Attach/detach of Tracepoint bpf programs has been managed
with the generic bpf_program__attach() and bpf_link__destroy() from
the libbpf.

Also, instead of using the previous BPF MAP definition, this commit
refactors ibumad MAP definition with the new BTF-defined MAP format.

To verify that this bpf program works without an infiniband device,
try loading ib_umad kernel module and test the program as follows:

    # modprobe ib_umad
    # ./ibumad

Moreover, TRACE_HELPERS has been removed from the Makefile since it is
not used on this program.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
