BPF core calls the jit compiler again for an extra pass in order
to properly set subprog addresses.
Unlike other architectures, powerpc only updates the addresses
during that extra pass. It means that holes must have been left
in the code in order to enable the maximum possible instruction
size.
In order avoid waste of space, and waste of CPU time on powerpc
processors on which the NOP instruction is not 0-cycle, perform
two real additional passes.

I don't see you updating calls to bpf_jit_get_func_addr() in
bpf_jit_build_body() to set extra_pass to true. Afaics, that's required
to get the correct address to be branched to for subprogs.
