Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi 2ab3b3808e bpf: Make BTF type match stricter for release arguments
The current of behavior of btf_struct_ids_match for release arguments is
that when type match fails, it retries with first member type again
(recursively). Since the offset is already 0, this is akin to just
casting the pointer in normal C, since if type matches it was just
embedded inside parent sturct as an object. However, we want to reject
cases for release function type matching, be it kfunc or BPF helpers.

An example is the following:

struct foo {
	struct bar b;
};

struct foo *v = acq_foo();
rel_bar(&v->b); // btf_struct_ids_match fails btf_types_are_same, then
		// retries with first member type and succeeds, while
		// it should fail.

Hence, don't walk the struct and only rely on btf_types_are_same for
strict mode. All users of strict mode must be dealing with zero offset
anyway, since otherwise they would want the struct to be walked.

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 Restructured Text 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.
