Thanks for the report, I attached a fix. Daniel, can I squash it and
resend as v2 or is it too late?
I'd be more confident if my patches sat a little longer on the list so
arm64 folks have a chance to review them. This isn't my first silly
mistake...
Thanks,
Jean

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: bpf: Fix build for !CONFIG_BPF_JIT
Add a stub for arm64_bpf_fixup_exception() when CONFIG_BPF_JIT isn't
enabled, and avoid the fixup in this case.
