Commit 2dc1e488e5cd ("libbpf: Support BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG") added
BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG support. But to test vmlinux build with
#define __user __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user")))
I need to sync libbpf repo and manually copy libbpf sources
to pahole. To simplify process, I used BTF_KIND_RESTRICT to
simulate BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG with vmlinux build as "restrict"
modifier is barely used in kernel. But this approach missed
one case in dedup with structures where BTF_KIND_RESTRICT is
handled and BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG is not handled in
btf_dedup_is_equiv(), and this will result in pahole dedup
failure. This patch fixed this issue and a selftest is added in
the subsequent patch to test this scenario.
The other missed handling is in btf__resolve_size().
Currently the compiler always emit like PTR->TYPE_TAG->...
so in practice we don't hit the missing BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG handling
issue with compiler generated code. But let us added
case BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG in the switch statement
to be future proof.
