Peter reported that perf_event_detach_bpf_prog might skip to release the bpf program for -ENOENT error from bpf_prog_array_copy. This can't happen because bpf program is stored in perf event and is detached and released only when perf event is freed. Let's make it obvious and add WARN_ON_ONCE on the -ENOENT check and make sure the bpf program is released in any case.
