All looks good, apart from the concern with partially-initialized
bpf_struct_ops.

this is always get passed vmlinux's btf, so why not call it short and
sweet "btf"? _btf_vmlinux is kind of ugly and verbose.

if struct_ops initialization fails, type will be NULL and type_id will
be 0, which we rely on here to not get partially-initialized
bpf_struct_ops, right? Small comment mentioning this would be helpful.

There is a btf_id == 0 check below, you need to check that for
STRUCT_OPS as well, otherwise you can get partially-initialized
bpf_struct_ops struct in check_struct_ops_btf_id.
