net: fix installing orphaned programs
When netdevice with offloaded BPF programs is destroyed the programs are orphaned and removed from the program IDA - their IDs get released (the programs may remain accessible via existing open file descriptors and pinned files). After IDs are released they are set to 0. This confuses dev_change_xdp_fd() because it compares the __dev_xdp_query() result where 0 means no program with prog->aux->id where 0 means orphaned. dev_change_xdp_fd() would have incorrectly returned success even though it had not installed the program. Since drivers already catch this case via bpf_offload_dev_match() let them handle this case. The error message drivers produce in this case ("program loaded for a different device") is in fact correct as the orphaned program must had to be loaded for a different device.
