Thanks for the improvements!  Since there will be v3 two minor nit
picks still :)

I'm not sure why you need these, why not just access
info.nr_jited_ksyms and info.jited_ksyms directly?  "member" variables
are there because jited and xlated images get returned in different
member of struct bpf_prog_info.

Indentation seems off.
