This patch failed to apply to latest bpf-next.
   $ git apply ~/p1.txt
   error: patch failed: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/log_buf.c:191
   error: tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/log_buf.c: patch does not apply

The reason is the above 'fd = -1' already gone:

188         ASSERT_OK_PTR(strstr(log_buf, "R0 !read_ok"), "bad_log_0");
189         ASSERT_LT(fd, 0, "bad_fd");
190         if (fd >= 0)
191                 close(fd);
192
193         free(log_buf);
194 }

There are more redundant 'fd = -1' in function bpf_btf_load_log_buf(),
you may want to remove them as well.
