So, I've added these committer notes while testing it, will continue
processing your patches later/tomorrow, thanks!

    Committer notes:
    
    Testing it using a perf.data file and vmlinux for powerpc64,
    cross-annotating it on a x86_64 workstation:
    
    Before:
    
      .__bpf_prog_run  vmlinux.powerpc
             │        std    r10,512(r9)                      ▒
             │        lbz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
             │        rldicr r9,r9,3,60                       ▒
             │        ldx    r9,r30,r9                        ▒
             │        mtctr  r9                               ▒
      100.00 │      ↓ bctr   3fffffffffe01510                 ▒
             │        lwa    r10,4(r31)                       ▒
             │        lwz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
      <SNIP>
      Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
    
    After:
    
      .__bpf_prog_run  vmlinux.powerpc
             │        std    r10,512(r9)                      ▒
             │        lbz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
             │        rldicr r9,r9,3,60                       ▒
             │        ldx    r9,r30,r9                        ▒
             │        mtctr  r9                               ▒
      100.00 │      ↓ bctr                                    ▒
             │        lwa    r10,4(r31)                       ▒
             │        lwz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
      <SNIP>
      Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
    
    This, in turn, uncovers another problem with jumps without operands, the
    ENTER/-> operation, to jump to the target, still continues using the bogus
    target :-)
    
    BTW, this was the file used for the above tests:
