btw, the libbpf GH repo tag v0.0.4 has 0.0.3 version set in Makefile:

   VERSION = 0
   PATCHLEVEL = 0
   EXTRAVERSION = 3

current code takes version from libbpf.map so it's fine,
but would be great to start from 0.0.5 so we don't need to
bother with rpm patches.. is 0.0.5 planned soon?

Technically we can bump it at any time.
The goal was to bump it only when new kernel is released
to capture a collection of new APIs in a given 0.0.X release.
So that libbpf versions are synchronized with kernel versions
in some what loose way.
In this case we can make an exception and bump it now.
