Addressing the three CI review comments on the v6 series:

could the 50000 carry a short note that it just has to outrunAccepted. Will be fixed in v7 as a proper preceding block comment:
ARENA_BUDGET on the smallest page size
/*
* 50000 pages must exceed ARENA_BUDGET / PAGE_SIZE (64M / 4k = 16384)
* so the fault loop hits memory.max before exhausting the arena itself.
*/
__uint(max_entries, 50000);
Not that simple.
It also make sure the arean not exceed 4G when page size is 64K.

Please don't submit further versions of this patchset. I have already prepared a
V6 (the one you sent), and I'm planning to send it myself. Additional submissions
from you would create unnecessary conflicts and confusion.
If you're interested in this series, I'd really appreciate your review and feedback instead.
I'll also be sure to cc you on future versions.
Best regards
