On processing a module BTF of module built for an older kernel, we might
sometimes find that some type points to itself forming a loop. If such a
type is a modifier, btf_check_type_tags's while loop following modifier
chain will be caught in an infinite loop.
Fix this by defining a maximum chain length and bailing out if we spin
any longer than that.
Fixes: eb596b0905 ("bpf: Ensure type tags precede modifiers in BTF")
