Hi Alejandro,

I tried testing this with an allmodconfig build for arm64 [*].

And this time I see this manifesting slightly differently.  I can follow-up
on why it is different (probably I messed something up when first reporting
the issue). But I am certainly seeing an issue there today.

    I am using the GCC 14.2.0 toolchain from [1] to cross compile on x86_64.
    Like this:

    PATH=/tmp/gcc-14.2.0-nolibc/aarch64-linux/bin:$PATH
    ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux- make allmodconfig
    ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux- make
