[ Upstream commit d7bc416aa5cc183691287e8f0b1d5b182a7ce9c3 ]

If PERF_EVENT program has __arg_ctx argument with matching
architecture-specific pt_regs/user_pt_regs/user_regs_struct pointer
type, libbpf should still perform type rewrite for old kernels, but not
emit the warning. Fix copy/paste from kernel code where 0 is meant to
signify "no error" condition. For libbpf we need to return "true" to
proceed with type rewrite (which for PERF_EVENT program will be
a canonical `struct bpf_perf_event_data *` type).

Fixes: 9eea8fafe33e ("libbpf: fix __arg_ctx type enforcement for perf_event programs")
