I applied this on top of net-next, from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git
(master branch)

and got this compile error:

kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c: In function âemit_condâ:
kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c:1361:36: error: â__bpf_call_baseâ undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c:1361:36: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c: In function âfilter_gen_bpfâ:
kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c:1622:2: error: implicit declaration of function âbpf_int_jit_compileâ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Config attached.
