[PATCH perf] perf: ignore deprecation warning when using libbpf's btf__get_from_id()

From: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-09-14 17:00:17
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds

Perf code re-implements libbpf's btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() API as
a weak function, presumably to dynamically link against old version of
libbpf shared library. Unfortunately this causes compilation warning
when perf is compiled against libbpf v0.6+.

For now, just ignore deprecation warning, but there might be a better
solution, depending on perf's needs.
