With DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES enabled, a BTF mismatch between vmlinux and a separately-built module prevents the module from loading, even if the ABI is otherwise compatible and the module would otherwise load without issues. Currently this can be avoided only by disabling BTF entirely; disabling just module BTF would be sufficient but is not possible with the current Kconfig. Add a prompt for DEBUG_INFO_BTF_MODULES to allow it to be disabled independently.
