Stanislav Fomichev d6d418bd8f libbpf: Cap retries in sys_bpf_prog_load
I've seen a situation, where a process that's under pprof constantly
generates SIGPROF which prevents program loading indefinitely.
The right thing to do probably is to disable signals in the upper
layers while loading, but it still would be nice to get some error from
libbpf instead of an endless loop.

Let's add some small retry limit to the program loading:
try loading the program 5 (arbitrary) times and give up.

v2:
* 10 -> 5 retires (Andrii Nakryiko)

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.
