This series fixes a btf dump error caused by forward declaration.
Currently if a declaration appears in the BTF before the definition,
the definition is dumped as a conflicting name, eg:
$ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format raw | grep "'unix_sock'"
[81287] FWD 'unix_sock' fwd_kind=struct
[89336] STRUCT 'unix_sock' size=1024 vlen=14
$ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format c | grep "struct unix_sock"
struct unix_sock;
struct unix_sock___2 { <--- conflict, the "___2" is unexpected
struct unix_sock___2 *unix_sk;
This causes a "definition not found" compilation error if the dump output
is used as a header file.
v3->v4:
- Fix failure test case
v2->v3:
- Fix the truncated email header
v1->v2:
- Add fix for enum forward declaration
