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 compilation error if the dump output is used as a header
file.
Fix it by skipping declaration when counting duplicated type names.
