I managed to reproduce finally with gcc-12, but had to use pahole 1.25,
1.24 failed with unknown attribute

	[95096] VAR 'rcu_data' type_id=94868, linkage=static
	[95098] VAR 'rcu_data' type_id=4, linkage=static
	type_id=95096 offset=177088 size=1152 (VAR 'rcu_data')
	type_id=95098 offset=177088 size=1152 (VAR 'rcu_data')

will try to check what's going on
