[ Upstream commit c628747cc8800cf6d33d09f7f42c8b6f91e64dc7 ]
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.
