+ * * The BPF program can take ONE lock at a time, since taking two
+ * or more could cause dead locks.

+ * are not allowed.
+ * * The **BPF_LD_ABS** and **BPF_LD_IND** instructions are not

+ * the **bpf_spin_lock**\ () and **bpf_spin_unlock**\ ()
+ * helpers. Loading or storing data into the **struct
+ * bpf_spin_lock** *lock*\ **;** field of a map is not allowed.
+ * * To use the **bpf_spin_lock**\ () helper, the BTF description
+ * of the map value must be a struct and have **struct

+ * Nested lock inside another struct is not allowed.
