I think we can avoid the include cycle as:

+struct perf_sample_data *sd;
struct bpf_event_entry {
struct perf_event *event;
struct file *perf_file;
struct file *map_file;
struct rcu_head rcu;
+ struct perf_sample_data *sd;
};

And do the kzalloc() or some other trick here.

And we only need xchg() here, so we can eliminate in_use.

Does this make sense?
