[PATCH] bpf/btf: Fix is_int_ptr()

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Wed Oct 12 2022 - 08:59:12 EST


When tracing a kernel function with arg type is u32*, btf_ctx_access()
would report error: arg2 type INT is not a struct.

The commit bb6728d75611 ("bpf: Allow access to int pointer arguments
in tracing programs") added support for int pointer, but don't skip
modifiers before checking it's type. This patch fixes it.

Fixes: bb6728d75611 ("bpf: Allow access to int pointer arguments in tracing programs")
