I'm getting build failures here, using CONFIG_CFI using clang-21:

ld.lld-21: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_wait_linear_map_split_to_ptes
>>> referenced by arch/arm64/mm/proc.o:(.idmap.text+0x298) in archive vmlinux.a

I can get it to build by using plain SYM_FUNC_START() instead of
SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(), but I have no idea if that makes any sense:
