Sorry, my mistake. I've reworded the changelog now to fix this:

| This function is only used when CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is disabled,
| but CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL is enabled. When both are turned off, the
| prototype is missing but the unused function is still compiled,
| as seen from this W=1 warning:
| 
| kernel/bpf/core.c:2075:6: error: no previous prototype for 'bpf_patch_call_args' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
| 
| Add a matching #ifdef for the definition to leave it out.

If this makes sense now, I'll send out a v3.
