Don't reset recorded sec_def handler unconditionally on
bpf_program__set_type(). There are two situations where this is wrong.
First, if the program type didn't actually change. In that case original
SEC handler should work just fine.
Second, catch-all custom SEC handler is supposed to work with any BPF
program type and SEC() annotation, so it also doesn't make sense to
reset that.
This patch fixes both issues. This was reported recently in the context
of breaking perf tool, which uses custom catch-all handler for fancy BPF
prologue generation logic. This patch should fix the issue.

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.
