Sorry, dropped the whole line:/
I don't know how to test .BTF . I can only check readelf -S...

Attached the new patch.

Subject: [PATCH bpf v2] bpf: Support llvm-objcopy and llvm-objdump for
  vmlinux BTF

Simplify gen_btf logic to make it work with llvm-objcopy and llvm-objdump.
We use a dd comment to change the e_type field in the ELF header from
ET_EXEC to ET_REL so that .btf.vmlinux.bin.o can be accepted by lld.

Fixes: df786c9b9476 ("bpf: Force .BTF section start to zero when dumping from vmlinux")
