resolve_btfids prints a warning when it finds an unresolved symbol,
(id == 0) in id_patch. This can be the case for BTF sets that are empty
(due to disabled config options), hence printing warnings for certain
builds, most recently seen in [0].
The reason behind this is because id->cnt aliases id->id in btf_id
struct, leading to empty set showing up as ID 0 when we get to id_patch,
which triggers the warning. Since sets are an exception here, accomodate
by reusing hole in btf_id for bool is_set member, setting it to true for
BTF set when setting id->cnt, and use that to skip extraneous warning.

Before:
; ./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids -v -b vmlinux net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.ko
adding symbol tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids
WARN: resolve_btfids: unresolved symbol tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids
patching addr 0: ID 0 [tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids]
sorting addr 4: cnt 0 [tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids]
update ok for net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.ko
After:
; ./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids -v -b vmlinux net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.ko
adding symbol tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids
patching addr 0: ID 0 [tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids]
sorting addr 4: cnt 0 [tcp_cubic_kfunc_ids]
update ok for net/ipv4/tcp_cubic.ko

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
