The kernel image can contain multiple types (structs/unions) with the same name. This causes distinct type hierarchies in BTF data and makes resolve_btfids fail with error like: BTFIDS vmlinux FAILED unresolved symbol udp6_sock as reported by Qais Yousef [1]. This change adds warning when multiple types of the same name are detected: BTFIDS vmlinux WARN: multiple IDs found for 'file': 526, 113351 - using 526 WARN: multiple IDs found for 'sk_buff': 2744, 113958 - using 2744 We keep the lower ID for the given type instance and let the build continue. Also changing the 'nr' variable name to 'nr_types' to avoid confusion.
