Subject: [PATCH iproute2 master] bpf: test for valid type in bpf_get_work_dir

Jan-Erik reported an assertion in bpf_prog_to_subdir() failed where
type was BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC, which is only used in bpf_init_env()
to auto-mount and cache the bpf fs mount point.

Therefore, make sure when bpf_init_env() is called multiple times
(f.e. eBPF classifier with eBPF action attached) and bpf_mnt_cached
is set already that the type is also valid. In bpf_init_env(), we're
only interested in the mount point and not a type-specific subdir.

Fixes: e42256699cac ("bpf: make tc's bpf loader generic and move into lib")
