After commit f632e75 ("dwarf_loader: Add the cu to the cus list early,
remove on LSK_DELETE"), I (and others[1]) notice a crash when running
pahole on modules built with Clang when CONFIG_LTO_CLANG is enabled:

  $ curl -LSso .config https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/linux/-/raw/main/config

  $ scripts/config -d LTO_NONE -e LTO_CLANG_THIN

  $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=x86_64 LLVM=1 olddefconfig vmlinux crypto/cast_common.ko
  make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modfinal:59: crypto/cast_common.ko] Error 139

I've isolated this to the following commands using the files available
at [2] (these were built with LLVM 18 but I could reproduce it with LLVM
17 and LLVM 19, so it appears to impact a number of versions):

  $ tar -tf clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash.tar.zst
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/cast_common.mod.o
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/module.lds
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/cast_common.o
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/cast_common.ko.bak
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/vmlinux
  clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash/cast_common.ko

  $ tar -axf clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash.tar.zst

  $ cd clang-lto-pahole-1.27-crash

  $ LLVM_OBJCOPY="llvm-objcopy" pahole-1.26 -J -j --btf_features=encode_force,var,float,enum64,decl_tag,type_tag,optimized_func,consistent_func --lang_exclude=rust --btf_base vmlinux cast_common.ko

  $ cp cast_common.ko{.bak,}

  $ LLVM_OBJCOPY="llvm-objcopy" pahole-1.27 -J -j --btf_features=encode_force,var,float,enum64,decl_tag,type_tag,optimized_func,consistent_func --lang_exclude=rust --btf_base vmlinux cast_common.ko
  fish: Job 1, '...' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)

If there is any more information I can provide or patches I can test, I
am more than happy to do so.
