Subject: libbpf: Fix segfault in light skeleton for objects without BTF
Patch-mainline: v5.15 or v5.15-rc5 (next release)
Git-commit: 4729445b47efebf089da4ccbcd1b116ffa2ad4af
References: git-fixes stable-5.14.12

When fed an empty BPF object, bpftool gen skeleton -L crashes at
btf__set_fd() since it assumes presence of obj->btf, however for
the sequence below clang adds no .BTF section (hence no BTF).

Reproducer:

  $ touch a.bpf.c
  $ clang -O2 -g -target bpf -c a.bpf.c
  $ bpftool gen skeleton -L a.bpf.o
  /* SPDX-License-Identifier: (LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause) */
  /* THIS FILE IS AUTOGENERATED! */

  struct a_bpf {
	struct bpf_loader_ctx ctx;
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The same occurs for files compiled without BTF info, i.e. without
clang's -g flag.

Fixes: 67234743736a (libbpf: Generate loader program out of BPF ELF file.)
