Could be, but note the comment you are removing:

# Re-generate module BTFs if either module's .ko or vmlinux changed

BTF has to be re-generated not just when module .ko is regenerated,
but also when the vmlinux image itself changes.

I don't see where this is done with your changes. Can you please point
it out explicitly?
