Hi,
How is this a fix for the commit that added the documentation in bpftool?

No I don't believe it should. BPFTOOL_DIR already contains
'tools/bpf/bpftool' and the os.path.join() concatenates the two path
fragments.

Where is this suggestion coming from? Did you face an issue with the script?

Same comment applies for the next two patches.
