I'm not sure what's the implication here, but I'd avoid doing that.
But see below.

If this is useless, why are you adding it?

Let's instead do a NULL check inside bpf_link_show_fdinfo() to handle
sparsity. And to avoid out-of-bounds, just add

[__MAX_BPF_LINK_TYPE] = NULL,

into the definition of bpf_link_type_strs

This seems like a bit too short-sighted approach, let's not go there just yet.
