Yes, and "-mfentry -DCC_USING_FENTRY" is missing from the gcc
commandline there.  And not only there, although I have
CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y and CONFIG_HAVE_FENTRY=y, which should cause it
to be added to KBUILD_CFLAGS and KBUILD_AFLAGS.

I don't understand that, but it's late in the evening here.
