Just to make sure I am not misunderstanding: I don't see where this is wasteful.
btf_type_by_id seems to not be searching anything, but just returns pointer in
base BTF if kfunc_id < btf->start_id, otherwise in module BTF.

What am I missing? I guess the 'kern_btf' name was the source of confusion? If
so, I'll rename it.

Thanks.
