If struct_ops has one of program callbacks set declaratively and host
kernel is old and doesn't support this callback, libbpf will allow to
load such struct_ops as long as that callback was explicitly nulled-out
(presumably through skeleton). This is all working correctly, except we
won't reset corresponding program slot to NULL before bailing out, which
will lead to libbpf not detecting that BPF program has to be not
auto-loaded. Fix this by unconditionally resetting corresponding program
slot to NULL.
Fixes: c911fc61a7ce ("libbpf: Skip zeroed or null fields if not found in the kernel type.")
