If you put "iouring.s" before "iouring" it will be matched first,
libbpf matches them in order, so more specific prefix should go first.
It is currently always treated as a prefix, not exact match,
unfortunately. I have a work planned to revamp this logic quite a bit
for libbpf 1.0, so this should be improved as part of that work.
