This was reported here too - 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/69158bb1.a70a0220.3124cb.001e.GAE@google.com/


Looks like it should be fixed with v3, which was posted just

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251117173530.43293-2-vishal.moola@gmail.com/

So, I guess, latest linux-next should not show this warning on ppc64le either.
