libbpf: fix SIGSEGV when BTF loading fails, but .BTF.ext exists
In case when BTF loading fails despite sanitization, but BPF object has .BTF.ext loaded as well, we free and null obj->btf, but not obj->btf_ext. This leads to an attempt to relocate .BTF.ext later on during bpf_object__load(), which assumes obj->btf is present. This leads to SIGSEGV on null pointer access. Fix bug by freeing and nulling obj->btf_ext as well. Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
