Andrii Nakryiko 581b31c36c kbuild: tolerate missing pahole when generating BTF
When BTF generation is enabled through CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF,
scripts/link-vmlinux.sh detects if pahole version is too old and
gracefully continues build process, skipping BTF generation build step.
But if pahole is not available, build will still fail. This patch adds
check for whether pahole exists at all and bails out gracefully, if not.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
