libbpf: Accomodate DWARF/compiler bug with duplicated identical arrays
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In some cases compiler seems to generate distinct DWARF types for identical
arrays within the same CU. That seems like a bug, but it's already out there
and breaks type graph equivalence checks, so accommodate it anyway by checking
for identical arrays, regardless of their type ID.
