commit 56925f389e152dcb8d093435d43b78a310539c23 upstream. With previous patch, one of subtests in test_btf_id becomes flaky and may fail. The following is a failing example: Error: #26 btf Error: #26/174 btf/BTF ID Error: #26/174 btf/BTF ID btf_raw_create:PASS:check 0 nsec btf_raw_create:PASS:check 0 nsec test_btf_id:PASS:check 0 nsec ... test_btf_id:PASS:check 0 nsec test_btf_id:FAIL:check BTF lingersdo_test_get_info:FAIL:check failed: -1 The test tries to prove a btf_id not available after the map is closed. But btf_id is freed only after workqueue and a rcu grace period, compared to previous case just after a rcu grade period. Depending on system workload, workqueue could take quite some time to execute function bpf_map_free_deferred() which may cause the test failure. Instead of adding arbitrary delays, let us remove the logic to check btf_id availability after map is closed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
