Looks good, applied, thanks! As far as I can tell all the other occurrences are
gated behind btf_parse_vmlinux() where we also init struct_opts, etc.

So for bpf-next this would then end up looking like ...

int btf_resolve_helper_id(struct bpf_verifier_log *log,
                           const struct bpf_func_proto *fn, int arg)
{
         int id;

         if (fn->arg_type[arg] != ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID)
                 return -EINVAL;
         id = fn->btf_id[arg];
         if (!id || !btf_vmlinux || id > btf_vmlinux->nr_types)
                 return -EINVAL;
         return id;
}
