Output will start with map ID followed by map type and
zero or more named attributes (depending on kernel version).
+ Since Linux 5.8 bpftool is able to discover information about
+ processes that hold open file descriptors (FDs) against BPF
+ maps. On such kernels bpftool will automatically emit this
+ information as well.
