Subject: FAILED unresolved symbol vfs_truncate on arm64 with LLVM

Hi all,

Recently, an issue with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF was reported for arm64:
https://groups.google.com/g/clang-built-linux/c/de_mNh23FOc/m/E7cu5BwbBAAJ

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- \
                      LLVM=1 O=build/aarch64 defconfig

$ scripts/config \
    --file build/aarch64/.config \
    -e BPF_SYSCALL \
    -e DEBUG_INFO_BTF \
    -e FTRACE \
    -e FUNCTION_TRACER

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- \
                      LLVM=1 O=build/aarch64 olddefconfig all

FAILED unresolved symbol vfs_truncate
...

My bisect landed on commit 6e22ab9da793 ("bpf: Add d_path helper")
although that seems obvious given that is what introduced
BTF_ID(func, vfs_truncate).

I am using the latest pahole v1.20 and LLVM is at
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/14da287e18846ea86e45b421dc47f78ecc5aa7cb
although I can reproduce back to LLVM 10.0.1, which is the earliest
version that the kernel supports. I am very unfamiliar with BPF so I
have no idea what is going wrong here. Is this a known issue?

Cheers,
Nathan
