map_update_elem is used to create relay files and bind them with the
relay channel, which is created with BPF_MAP_CREATE. This allows users
to set a custom directory name. It must be used with key=NULL and
flag=0.

Here is an example:
```
struct {
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_RELAY);
__uint(max_entries, 4096);
} my_relay SEC(".maps");
...
char dir_name[] = "relay_test";
bpf_map_update_elem(map_fd, NULL, dir_name, 0);
```

Then, directory `/sys/kerenl/debug/relay_test` will be created, which
includes files of my_relay0...my_relay[#cpu]. Each represents a per-cpu
buffer with size 8 * 4096 B (there are 8 subbufs by default, each with
size 4096B).

looks like this patch could be moved to the previous one?

OK, will do it.

It is a little weird. Because the name of the relay file is
$debug_fs_root/$value_name/${map_name}xxx. Could we update it to
$debug_fs_root/$map_name/$value_name/xxx instead ?

Lock is needed here, because .map_update_elem can be invoked concurrently.

I think a unique directory is enough for a relay map, so currently users 
can use map_update_elem to set the directory name. Thus 
$map_name/${value_name}xxx may be better than $map_name/$value_name/xxx.

As for whether map_name or value_name is better to be used as the 
directory name, I think it more likely that different bpf programs share 
a same map_name. So value_name is currently used.

Got it. I will fix it in the next version.

Thanks.
