so for me the difference seems to be using gcc-12 and this commit in linux tree:
  dabddd687c9e percpu: cast percpu pointer in PERCPU_PTR() via unsigned long

which adds extra __pcpu_ptr variable into dwarf, and it has the same
address as the per cpu variable and that confuses pahole

it ends up with adding per cpu variable twice.. one with real type
(type_id=94868) and the other with unsigned long type (type_id=4)

however this got fixed in pahole 1.28 commit:
  47dcb534e253 btf_encoder: Stop indexing symbols for VARs

which filters out __pcpu_ptr variable completely, adding Stephen to the loop

with gcc-14 the __pcpu_ptr variable has VSCOPE_OPTIMIZED scope, so it won't
get into btf even without above pahole fix

I suggest gcc/pahole upgrade ;-)

thanks,
