bpf selftests using iproute2 fails with:
$ ip link set dev veth0 xdp object ../bpf/xdp_dummy.o section xdp_dummy
Continuing without mounted eBPF fs. Too old kernel?
mkdir (null)/globals failed: No such file or directory
Unable to load program
This happens when the /sys/fs/bpf directory exists. In this case, mkdir
in bpf_mnt_check_target() fails with errno == EEXIST, and the function
returns -1. Thus bpf_get_work_dir() does not call bpf_mnt_fs() and the
bpffs is not mounted.
Fix this in bpf_mnt_check_target(), returning 0 when the mountpoint
exists.
