The s390x compiler generates multiple definitions of the same struct and dedup algorithm does not seem to handle this at the moment. I found code in dedup that seems to handle such situation for arrays, and added btf_dedup_is_equiv call for structs. With this change I can no longer see vmlinux's structs in kernel module BTF data, but I have no idea if that breaks anything else.
