Now that SOCKMAP can store listening sockets, user-space and BPF API is
open to a new set of potential pitfalls. Exercise the map operations (with
extra attention to code paths susceptible to races between map ops and
socket cloning), and BPF helpers that work with SOCKMAP to gain confidence
that all works as expected.

Will the test be marked OK if listen fails here? Should we mark it skipped or
maybe even failed? Just concerned it may be passing even if the update doesn't
actually happen.
Yes, it will be marked as failed if we don't succeed in creating a
listening socket. The listen_loopback helper uses x{socket,bind,listen}
wrappers, which in turn use the CHECK_FAIL macro to fail the test.

Thanks for going through this series till the end :-)
