The BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO arm in types__match() first checks whether two function types identified by t1/t2 have matching return types and then attempts to iterate over the function parameters (p1/p2) to check them for compatibility too. However, the loop just repeats the check on t1/t2 instead of p1/p2, so we just keep re-checking return type compatibility, ignoring possible mismatches of the actual parameter types. Fix this by actually comparing p1 and p2. This also resolves a unused-but-set-variable build-time warning.
