CVE-2023-54247

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Silence a warning in btf_type_id_size()

syzbot reported a warning in [1] with the following stacktrace:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5005 at kernel/bpf/btf.c:1988 btf_type_id_size+0x2d9/0x9d0 kernel/bpf/btf.c:1988

With the following btf
[1] DECL_TAG ‘a’ type_id=4 component_idx=-1
[2] PTR ‘(anon)’ type_id=0
[3] TYPE_TAG ‘a’ type_id=2
[4] VAR ‘a’ type_id=3, linkage=static
and when the bpf_attr.btf_key_type_id = 1 (DECL_TAG),
the following WARN_ON_ONCE in btf_type_id_size() is triggered:
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!btf_type_is_modifier(size_type) &&
!btf_type_is_var(size_type)))
return NULL;

Note that ‘return NULL’ is the correct behavior as we don’t want
a DECL_TAG type to be used as a btf_{key,value}_type_id even
for the case like ‘DECL_TAG -> STRUCT’. So there
is no correctness issue here, we just want to silence warning.

To silence the warning, I added DECL_TAG as one of kinds in
btf_type_nosize() which will cause btf_type_id_size() returning
NULL earlier without the warning.
