Yes. The warning is due to the checking added in commit c93047255202
("bpf: Ensure unit_size is matched with slab cache object size").
Considering that bpf-next has not merged the patch-set yet, should I
post a patch to bpf tree to fix it ? A fix patch is attached which can
fix the warning in my local setup.

I will apply your patch as a merge resolution for the bpf-next tree
merge until something better is done. Please make sure to let me know
if it is not longer needed (in case it is not obvious).
