Can you explain what is _RH_KABI_REPLACE, why it is needed so that
people unfamiliar with it can make sense of your patch?

Also why "btf_prefix" when this is related to this other feature? Can
you find a better name?

You also forgot to update the man page at man-pages/pahole.1.

Why do you need to add this new include? I guess you meant including
pahole_strings.h to get the forward declaration for 'btf_prefix'?

Please also follow the existing coding style, i.e. use a space after
'if' and also after the commas.
