Hmm, so on 64 bit archs BTF_KIND_PTR would get rejected for array,
on 32 bit it may be allowed due to sizeof(void *) == 4. BTF_KIND_ARRAY
could be array of u8 foo[4], for example, or u16 foo[2]. But how would
it ultimately be different from e.g. having 'struct a' versus 'struct b'
where both are of same size and while actual key has 'struct a', the one
who writes the prog resp. loads the BTF into the kernel would lie about
it stating it's of type 'struct b' instead? It's basically trusting the
app that it advertised sane key types which kernel is propagating back.

Thanks,
Daniel
