I'm missing some high-level concept on how this would be used? Where does btf_fd come
from and how is it used so that it doesn't break sig-check?
aha as I look through this again it seems btf_fd can be from fd_array[] and
sig-check will pan out as well as BTF can come from any valid file.
Correct? If so lgtm at high-level.
