Thanks for the clean up! Few issues, but overall I like this.

I suspect that at some point this approach won't be flexible enough,
but it simplifies error handling right now, so I'm ok with it.

please, emit error code as well
also, clear out btf_vmlinux, otherwise your code will attempt to free
invalid pointer later on

you can skip this check, btf__free(NULL) is handled properly as noop

I had complaints previously about doing too much heavy-lifting in
variable assignment, not sure why this slipped through. Can you please
split this into variable declaration and separate assignment below?

argument indentation is off here, please fix
