I had a second patch that introduced MAX_BPF_LINK_TYPE, etc. and then
added explicit array initializers:

     [MAX_BPF_LINK_TYPE] = NULL,

That turns the OOB read into a NULL read. But it has to be done for
every inclusion of bpf_types.h so it's
a bit cumbersome. Maybe add MAX_BPF_LINK_TYPE and then add an entry in
bpf_types.h for it as well?
