bpf: Validate outgoing stack args when btf_prepare_func_args fails
btf_prepare_func_args() sets sub->arg_cnt before validating arg types.
If validation fails (e.g. unsupported pointer type in a static subprog),
check_outgoing_stack_args() is skipped because btf_check_func_arg_match()
returns early. For static subprogs, check_func_call() ignores non-EFAULT
errors and proceeds with the call.
This causes the callee to read stack arg slots that the caller never
stored or not initialized, potentially dereferencing NULL caller->stack_arg_regs
or getting no-initialized value.
To fix the issue, when btf_prepare_func_args() fails and the subprog expects
stack args, call check_outgoing_stack_args() to verify the caller initialized
the slots. Return -EFAULT on failure so the error is not ignored.
Fixes: 3ab5bd317ee2 ("bpf: Set sub->arg_cnt earlier in btf_prepare_func_args()")
