Yonghong Song 12c49ac4cf bpf: btf: check name validity for various types ...

[ Upstream commit eb04bbb608 ]

This patch added name checking for the following types:
 . BTF_KIND_PTR, BTF_KIND_ARRAY, BTF_KIND_VOLATILE,
   BTF_KIND_CONST, BTF_KIND_RESTRICT:
     the name must be null
 . BTF_KIND_STRUCT, BTF_KIND_UNION: the struct/member name
     is either null or a valid identifier
 . BTF_KIND_ENUM: the enum type name is either null or a valid
     identifier; the enumerator name must be a valid identifier.
 . BTF_KIND_FWD: the name must be a valid identifier
 . BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF: the name must be a valid identifier

For those places a valid name is required, the name must be
a valid C identifier. This can be relaxed later if we found
use cases for a different (non-C) frontend.
