commit 4c5de127598e1 ("bpf: Emit explicit NULL pointer checks
for PROBE_LDX instructions.") is emitting couple of instructions
before actual load. Consider those additional instructions while
calculating extable offset.

Great debugging and the fix. Thanks a lot.
I've dropped (u8) cast, kept (), and applied to bpf tree.
I think it looks cleaner without that cast.

Thanks.

Could you send a followup patch with a selftest, so I don't make
the same mistake again ? ;)

Unfortunately extable gets involved only for bad kernel pointers and
ideally there should not be any bad pointer in kernel. So there is no
easy way to create a proper selftest for this.
