The first branch requires both CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY and
CONFIG_X86. The second branch requires CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP.
PowerPC selects ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY (arch/powerpc/Kconfig) but not
ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP, so neither branch compiles in and the function
always returns NULL on that architecture.

The comment references get_invalid_address() but the function that
creates the address is create_bad_kaddr().

Since create_bad_kaddr() returns NULL on PowerPC (which supports BPF
trampolines via HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS), would this WARN_ON fire
every time the bpf_fentry_test13_pptr test runs on that architecture?

CI run summary: https://github.com/kernel-patches/bpf/actions/runs/22118172993
AI-authorship-score: low
AI-authorship-explanation: Stale comment referencing a renamed function and an architecture coverage gap with WARN_ON are characteristic of human-authored code that underwent refactoring.
issues-found: 2
issue-severity-score: medium
issue-severity-explanation: WARN_ON(!kaddr) fires unconditionally on PowerPC where create_bad_kaddr() always returns NULL, producing kernel warnings on every test run and potential panics with panic_on_warn.
