+ *
+ * For example:
+ * In describing "const void *",  type_id is "const" and "const"
+ * refers to "void *".  The return type will be "void *".
+ *
+ * If type_id is a simple "int", then return type will be "int".

+ * @type_id: Find out the size of type_id. The type_id of the return

+ * @ret_size: It can be NULL.  If not NULL, the size of the return
+ *            type is set to *ret_size.
+ * Return: The btf_type (resolved to another type with size info if needed).
+ *         NULL is returned if type_id itself does not have size info
+ *         (e.g. void) or it cannot be resolved to another type that
+ *         has size info.
+ *         *type_id and *ret_size will not be changed in the
