Note, this is a merge conflict with the work that went via net-next tree,
i.e. 24701ecea76b ("ebpf: move read-only fields to bpf_prog and shrink
bpf_prog_aux"). I believe that is why it didn't trigger on tip tree.

You should be able to resolve it in linux-next by changing the test to:

if (prog->prog_type != BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE) {
