There is build issue, please check your tree:

  MODPOST vmlinux.symvers
  MODINFO modules.builtin.modinfo
  GEN     modules.builtin
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux.btf
ld: Unexpected GOT/PLT entries detected!
ld: Unexpected run-time procedure linkages detected!
ld: drivers/iommu/arm/arm-smmu-v3/arm-smmu-v3.o: in function `smmu_test_store':
