check_reg_type() checks whether a reg can be used as an arg of a func_proto. For PTR_TO_BTF_ID, the check is actually not completely done until the reg->btf_id is pointing to a kernel struct that is acceptable by the func_proto. Thus, this patch moves the btf_id check into check_reg_type(). "arg_type" and "arg_btf_id" are passed to check_reg_type() instead of "compatible". The compatible_reg_types[] usage is localized in check_reg_type() now. The "if (!btf_id) verbose(...); " is also removed since it won't happen.

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.
