check_ptr_off_reg only allows fixed offset to be set for PTR_TO_BTF_ID,
where reg->off < 0 doesn't make sense. This would shift the pointer
backwards, and fails later in btf_struct_ids_match or btf_struct_walk
due to out of bounds access (since offset is interpreted as unsigned).
Improve the verifier by rejecting this case by using a better error
message for BPF helpers and kfunc, by putting a check inside the
check_func_arg_reg_off function.
