externs are unnecessary. Just make them static.
Also I prefer single helper that takes a flag, so we can extend it
instead of adding func_id for every little operation.

To avoid conflicts if you touch kernel/bpf/* or bpf.h please always
base your patches of net-next.

global flag per map is no go.
events are independent and should be treated as such.

Please squash these two patches, since they're part of one logical
feature. Splitting them like this only makes review harder.
