ok, so the fix the issue in 6.11 with upstream backports we'd need both:
1) de3ec364c3c3 lib/buildid: add single folio-based file reader abstraction
2) 60c845b4896b lib/buildid: take into account e_phoff when fetching program headers
2) is needed because 1) seems to omit ehdr->e_phoff addition (patch below)
which is added back in 2)
IMO 6.11 is close to upstream and by taking above upstream fixes it will be
easier to backport other possible fixes in the future, for other trees I'd
take the original one line fix I posted
