>From commit 282de143ea ("bpf: Introduce allocated objects support"),
With this allocated object with BPF program, (PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC)
has been a way of indicating to check the type is the allocated object.
commit d8939cb0a0 ("bpf: Loosen alloc obj test in verifier's
reg_btf_record")
>From the commit, there has been helper function for checking this, named
type_is_ptr_alloc_obj(). But still, some of the code use open code to
retrieve this info. This commit replaces the open code with the
type_is_alloc(), and the type_is_ptr_alloc_obj() function.
