The fix looks reasonable. Thanks!

However, I am still seeing some failure:

make TARGETS=bpf kselftest
[...]
test_verifier.c
/data/users/songliubraving/kernel/linux-git/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_stub.o
/data/users/songliubraving/kernel/linux-git/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/libbpf.a
-lcap -lelf -lrt -lpthread -o
/data/users/songliubraving/kernel/linux-git/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_verifier
make[3]: test_verifier.c: Command not found

Is this just a problem with my setup?

Thanks,
Song
