I don't know which kernel version you are referring to exactly,
however 4.19.53 from linux-stable does not contain the common code
infrastructure for relative jump labels. The infrastructure was merged
with 4.20: commit 50ff18ab497aa ("jump_label: Implement generic
support for relative references").
Therefore a backport of only 146448524bdd seems to be the way to go.
