Split the introductory that explain eBPF vs classic BPF and how it maps to hardware from the instruction set specification into a standalone document. This duplicates a little bit of information but gives us a useful reference for the eBPF instrution set that is not encumbered by classic BPF.

This directory contains documentation for the BPF (Berkeley Packet
|
|
Filter) facility, with a focus on the extended BPF version (eBPF).
|
|
|
|
This kernel side documentation is still work in progress.
|
|
The Cilium project also maintains a `BPF and XDP Reference Guide`_
|
|
that goes into great technical depth about the BPF Architecture.
