I think this will break bpf selftests which use hashmap,
we need to find some other way to include this

either to use it from libbpf directly, or use the api version
only if the libbpf is not compiled in perf, we could use
following to detect that:

      CFLAGS += -DHAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
      $(call detected,CONFIG_LIBBPF)
