Fabian Grünbichler 826eb0ff89 build: re-enable BTF
but allow discarding BTF information when loading modules, so that upgrades
which are otherwise ABI compatible still work. this allows using BTF
information when matching and available, while degrading gracefully if the
currently running kernel is not identical to the one that module was built for.

in case of a mismatch, the kernel will log a warning when loading the module,
for example:

Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF:          type_id=184 bits_offset=4096
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF:
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF: Invalid name
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF:
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: failed to validate module [bonding] BTF: -22

Subject: [PATCH] bug: introduce ASSERT_STRUCT_OFFSET
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
ASSERT_STRUCT_OFFSET allows to assert during the build of
the kernel that a field in a struct have an expected offset.
KVM used to have such macro, but there is almost nothing KVM specific
in it so move it to build_bug.h, so that it can be used in other
places in KVM.
