I can confirm that with this patch everything is working. I also applied
the following diff:

diff --git a/kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c b/kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c
index 6c0018abe68a..cc5a3a18816d 100644
--- a/kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c
+++ b/kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c
@@ -96,8 +96,10 @@ unsigned int trace_call_bpf(struct trace_event_call
*call, void *ctx)
 {
        unsigned int ret;

-       if (in_nmi()) /* not supported yet */
+       if (in_nmi()) /* not supported yet */ {
+               trace_dump_stack(0);
                return 1;
+       }

        cant_sleep();


And can confirm that the branch is being hit and the following call
trace is produced:

 => __ftrace_trace_stack
 => trace_call_bpf
 => kprobe_perf_func
 => kprobe_int3_handler
 => exc_int3
 => asm_exc_int3
 => btrfs_sync_file

 => do_syscall_64
 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe

FWIW I'd prefer if in addition to the original commit you also mention:

ba1f2b2eaa2a ("x86/entry: Fix NMI vs IRQ state tracking")
b6be002bcd1d ("x86/entry: Move nmi entry/exit into common code")

Since they changed the way nmi state is managed in exc_int3 and not in
the original do_int3. THe latter no longer contains any references to
nmi-related code.
