tools lib bpf: Fix maps resolution



It is not correct to assimilate the elf data of the maps section to an
array of map definition. In fact the sizes differ. The offset provided
in the symbol section has to be used instead.

This patch fixes a bug causing a elf with two maps not to load
correctly.

Wang Nan added:

This patch requires a name for each BPF map, so array of BPF maps is not
allowed. This restriction is reasonable, because kernel verifier forbid
indexing BPF map from such array unless the index is a fixed value, but
if the index is fixed why not merging it into name?

For example:

Program like this:
  ...
  unsigned long cpu = get_smp_processor_id();
  int *pval = map_lookup_elem(&map_array[cpu], &key);
  ...

Generates bytecode like this:

0: (b7) r1 = 0
1: (63) *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1
2: (b7) r1 = 680997
3: (63) *(u32 *)(r10 -8) = r1
4: (85) call 8
5: (67) r0 <<= 4
6: (18) r1 = 0x112dd000
8: (0f) r0 += r1
9: (bf) r2 = r10
10: (07) r2 += -4
11: (bf) r1 = r0
12: (85) call 1

Where instruction 8 is the computation, 8 and 11 render r1 to an invalid
value for function map_lookup_elem, causes verifier report error.
