Can you comment on why sizeof(u64) here? The int types can be larger
than 64 for example and don't have a similar check, maybe the should
as well?

Here is an example from some made up program I ran through clang and
bpftool.

[2] INT '__int128' size=16 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=128 encoding=SIGNED

We also have btf_type_int_is_regular to decide if the int is of some
"regular" size but I don't see it used in these paths.
