Here is a fix to kernel/bpf/helprs.c by Eduard:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250627175309.2710973-1-eddyz87@gmail.com/

This fix addresses build errors with certain config.

Here is my fix to the selftests:
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250627191221.765921-1-song@kernel.org/

I didn't CC linux-fsdevel because all the changes are in the
selftests, and the error is independent of the new code.

Thanks,
Song
