Re: [PATCH bpf v2 0/5] fix test_sockmap

This series fixes error handling, timeout and data verification in
test_sockmap. Previously it was not able to detect failure/timeout in
RX/TX thread because error was not notified to the main thread.

Also slightly improved test output by printing parameter values (cork,
apply, start, end) so that parameters for all tests are displayed.

After first patch "check test failure" how do we handle the case
where test is known to cause timeouts because we are specifically testing
these cases. This is the 'cork' parameter we discussed in the last
series. It looks like with this series the test may still throw an
error?
