Both BPF_F_WRONLY / BPF_F_RDONLY flags are tied to the map file descriptor, but not to the map object itself! Meaning, at map creation time BPF_F_RDONLY can be set to make the map read-only from syscall side, but this holds only for the returned fd, so any other fd either retrieved via bpf file system or via map id for the very same underlying map object can have read-write access instead. Given that, keeping the two flags around in the map_flags attribute and exposing them to user space upon map dump is misleading and may lead to false conclusions. Since these two flags are not tied to the map object lets also not store them as map property.
