Please name the union 'bpf_prog' and not 'prog'.
We should match what David Ahern did for devmap.

Even-though we are NOT exposing this in the UAPI header-file, this still
becomes a UAPI interface (actually kABI).  The struct member names are
still important, even-though this is a binary layout, because the BTF
info is basically documenting this API.

Notice when kernel is compiled with BTF info, you (or end-user) can use
pahole to "reverse" the struct layout (comments don't survive, so we
need descriptive member names):

$ pahole bpf_devmap_val
struct bpf_devmap_val {
        __u32                      ifindex;              /*     0     4 */
        union {
                int                fd;                   /*     4     4 */
                __u32              id;                   /*     4     4 */
        } bpf_prog;                                      /*     4     4 */
        struct {
                unsigned char      data[24];             /*     8    24 */
        } storage;                                       /*     8    24 */

        /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
        /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};
