Recently, st_ops->cfi_stubs was introduced. However, the upcoming new
struct_ops support (e.g. sched_ext) is not aware of this and does not
provide its own cfi_stubs. The kernel ends up NULL dereferencing the
st_ops->cfi_stubs.
Considering struct_ops supports kernel module now, this NULL check
is necessary. This patch is to reject struct_ops registration
that does not provide a cfi_stubs.
