Thanks. I will address this in the next version. The issue occurs because
CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RETVAL and CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF
are enabled, but CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is disabled.
This prevents trace_btf.c from being compiled, while the function
btf_find_func_proto
it provides is still required.

Thanks,
Donglin
