Antoine Tenart c73a9683cb libbpf: Skip base btf sanity checks
When upgrading to libbpf 1.3 we noticed a big performance hit while
loading programs using CORE on non base-BTF symbols. This was tracked
down to the new BTF sanity check logic. The issue is the base BTF
definitions are checked first for the base BTF and then again for every
module BTF.

Loading 5 dummy programs (using libbpf-rs) that are using CORE on a
non-base BTF symbol on my system:
- Before this fix: 3s.
- With this fix: 0.1s.

Fix this by only checking the types starting at the BTF start id. This
should ensure the base BTF is still checked as expected but only once
(btf->start_id == 1 when creating the base BTF), and then only
additional types are checked for each module BTF.

Fixes: 3903802bb9 ("libbpf: Add basic BTF sanity validation")

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.
