perf does not build with:
libbpf.c: In function 'bpf_object__close': libbpf.c:4205:15: error: 'struct bpf_object' has no member named 'btf_vmlinux' btf__free(obj->btf_vmlinux); ^~
due to 34d66b750e83d49c7d3d33d59e6a1b49e0d5db15 ("libbpf: Free btf_vmlinux when closing bpf_object")
the btf_vmlinux member was introduced with a6ed02cac690b635dbb938690e795812ce1e14ca ("libbpf: Load btf_vmlinux only once per object.") which is only in >= 5.6.
Suggset we drop that commit.
