CVE-2024-49850

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

bpf: correctly handle malformed BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL relos

In case of malformed relocation record of kind BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL
referencing a non-existing BTF type, function bpf_core_calc_relo_insn
would cause a null pointer deference.

Fix this by adding a proper check upper in call stack, as malformed
relocation records could be passed from user space.

Simplest reproducer is a program:

    r0 = 0
    exit

With a single relocation record:

    .insn_off = 0,          /* patch first instruction */
    .type_id = 100500,      /* this type id does not exist */
    .access_str_off = 6,    /* offset of string "0" */
    .kind = BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL,

See the link for original reproducer or next commit for a test case.
