[PATCH bpf-next 3/5] libbpf: Initialize the bpf_seq_printf parameters array field by field

[Florent Revest <revest@chromium.org>]

When initializing the __param array with a one liner, if all args are
const, the initial array value will be placed in the rodata section but
because libbpf does not support relocation in the rodata section, any
pointer in this array will stay NULL.

This is a workaround, ideally the rodata relocation should be supported
by libbpf but this would require a disproportionate amount of work given
the actual usecases. (it is very unlikely that one uses a const array of
relocated addresses)
