Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] libbpf: add support for ints larger than 128 bits
Date:   Tue,  5 Jan 2021 14:45:32 +0000

clang supports arbitrary length ints using the _ExtInt extension. This
can be useful to hold very large values, e.g. 256 bit or 512 bit types.

This requires the _ExtInt extension enabled in clang, which is under
review.
