That doesn't fix it, because then you'd need to expose
interpreters_args as well and obviously that can't be right.

Instead, we should never call bpf_patch_call_args() when JIT always on
is enabled.  So if we fail to JIT the subprogs we should fail
immediately.

This is the net --> net-next merge resolution I am about to use to fix
this:

...
 +static int fixup_call_args(struct bpf_verifier_env *env)
 +{
 +	struct bpf_prog *prog = env->prog;
 +	struct bpf_insn *insn = prog->insnsi;
- 	int i, depth;
++	int i, depth, err;
 +
- 	if (env->prog->jit_requested)
- 		if (jit_subprogs(env) == 0)
++	err = 0;
++	if (env->prog->jit_requested) {
++		err = jit_subprogs(env);
++		if (err == 0)
 +			return 0;
- 
++	}
++#ifndef CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON
 +	for (i = 0; i < prog->len; i++, insn++) {
 +		if (insn->code != (BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL) ||
 +		    insn->src_reg != BPF_PSEUDO_CALL)
 +			continue;
 +		depth = get_callee_stack_depth(env, insn, i);
 +		if (depth < 0)
 +			return depth;
 +		bpf_patch_call_args(insn, depth);
 +	}
- 	return 0;
++	err = 0;
++#endif
++	return err;
 +}
 +
  /* fixup insn->imm field of bpf_call instructions
   * and inline eligible helpers as explicit sequence of BPF instructions
   *
