Nathan Chancellor 1ed171a3af tracing/probes: Avoid using params uninitialized in parse_btf_arg()
After a recent change in clang to strengthen uninitialized warnings [1],
it points out that in one of the error paths in parse_btf_arg(), params
is used uninitialized:

  kernel/trace/trace_probe.c:660:19: warning: variable 'params' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
    660 |                         return PTR_ERR(params);
        |                                        ^~~~~~

Match many other NO_BTF_ENTRY error cases and return -ENOENT, clearing
up the warning.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
