Hi again,
after sending this out, I noticed this is only a problem in the stable
versions (starting from v6.0.3), as c09eb2e578eb1668bbc has been applied (as
03f148c159a250dd454) but not 0e253f7e558a3e250902 ("bpf: Return value in kprobe
get_func_ip only for entry address") which makes always use of get_entry_ip.
I therefore think, 0e253f7e558a3e250902 needs to be added to the stable v6.0
series as well as otherwise it can't be compiled with -Werror if
CONFIG_X6_KERNEL_IBT is set but CONFIG_FPROBE isn't.
