Sparse warning:
kernel/bpf/btf.c:1985:34: warning: Variable length array is used.

This patch moves the nr_secs from btf_check_sec_info() to a macro.

Fixes: f80442a4cd18 ("bpf: btf: Change how section is supported in btf_header")

Perhaps use ARRAY_SIZE directly instead of indirectly via a #define

	struct btf_sec_info secs[ARRAY_SIZE(btf_sec_info_offset)];

which makes this loop more intelligible.
