The command implementation is wrapping BPF_MAP_*_ELEM commands, I
would expect this one to handle the same flags which are 64 bit.
Note that there's a hole in the anonymous structure used by the other
commands too:
struct { /* anonymous struct used by BPF_MAP_*_ELEM commands */
__u32 map_fd;
__aligned_u64 key;
union {
__aligned_u64 value;
__aligned_u64 next_key;
};
__u64 flags;
};
