bpf, btf: Warn but return no error for NULL btf from __register_btf_kfunc_id_set()

__register_btf_kfunc_id_set() assumes .BTF to be part of the module's .ko
file if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled. If that's not the case, the
function prints an error message and return an error. As a result, such
modules cannot be loaded.

However, the section could be stripped out during a build process. It would
be better to let the modules loaded, because their basic functionalities
have no problem [0], though the BTF functionalities will not be supported.
Make the function to lower the level of the message from error to warn, and
return no error.
