If it was me, I would do things more like v1 of the patch (instead
just checking pahole version), because this is the only flag set in
scripts/Makefile.modfinal, which is a little confusing and
inconsistent. It's ok to set --lang_exclude=rust in all cases, as long
as pahole_ver is recent enough.

+if [ "${pahole_ver}" -ge "124" ]; then
+       # see PAHOLE_HAS_LANG_EXCLUDE
+       extra_paholeopt="${extra_paholeopt} --lang_exclude=rust"
+fi

But I'm not too opinionated either on this so...

can be reapplied. I'm gonna test this again to see if it works in a
Fedora Asahi rpm build.
