Nick Desaulniers reported an issue ([1]) where an 128-byte sized type
(DW_ATE_unsigned_1024) cannot be encoded into BTF with failure message
likes below:
  $ pahole -J reduced.o
  [2] INT DW_ATE_unsigned_1024 Error emitting BTF type
  Encountered error while encoding BTF.
See [1] for how to reproduce the issue.

The failure is due to currently BTF int type only supports upto 16
bytes (__int128) and in this case the dwarf int type is 128-byte.

The DW_ATE_unsigned_1024 is not a normal type for variable/func
declaration etc. It is used in DW_AT_location. There are two
ways to resolve this issue.
  (1). If btf encoding is expected, remove all dwarf int types
       where btf encoding will failure, e.g., non-power-of-2
       bytes, or greater than 16 bytes.
  (2). do a sanitization in btf_encoder ([2]).

This patch uses method (2) since it is a simple fix in btf_encoder.
I checked my local built vmlinux with latest
bpf-next. There is only one instance of DW_ATE_unsigned_24 (used in
DW_AT_location) so I expect irregular int types should be very rare.

Thanks, this fixed the above reported error for me.  My report is just
forwarded from Satya.

I don't know if that change has other implications for unusual byte sizes.

We might need to consider at some point waiting to validate
DW_TAG_base_type until we know that they're not used outside of
DW_AT_location expressions.

David Blaikie confirmed that indeed special types like 
DW_ATE_unsigned_1024 is indeed generated for DW_AT_location.
See https://github.com/libbpf/libbpf/pull/680 for details.
