nit but given UAPI: maybe name into something more self-descriptive
like BPF_F_SHAREABLE_EVENT ?

I'm not happy with either name.
It's not about sharing and not really about perf event.
I think the current behavior of perf_event_array is unusual and surprising.
Sadly we cannot fix it without breaking user space, so flag is needed.
How about BPF_F_STICKY_OBJECTS or BPF_F_PRESERVE_OBJECTS
or the same with s/OBJECTS/FILES/ ?

Sounds good to me, BPF_F_PRESERVE_OBJECTS or _ENTRIES seems reasonable.

Why not simplify into:

        if (map->map_flags & BPF_F_SHAREABLE_EVENT)
                bpf_fd_array_map_clear(map);
        fd_array_map_free(map);
