Fix typos and improve clarity in eBPF documentation - #280
Merged
Conversation
When specifying that eBPF programs have return values similar to functions, specifying eBPF instead of just saying program and adding commas between "like functions" improves clarity. "Program like functions" reads as if we are talking about functions being similar to programs when it is the other way around. Inserting commas, using programs instead of program, and specifying eBPF specifically makes the message clearer. Another typo exists in the next paragraph where the singular program instead of the plural programs is used.
