I'm seeing an issue with this patch. My build system has pahole v1.17,
but I don't think the pahole version is key.

$ git checkout 3351b16af494 # recently added to linus/master
$ make defconfig
$ make menuconfig # set CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL and CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF
$ make V=1
+ ./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids vmlinux
FAILED unresolved symbol __add_to_page_cache_locked

Reverting 3351b16af494 ("mm/filemap: add static for function
__add_to_page_cache_locked") fixes the issue.

I don't see the warning which motivated this patch, but maybe it
requires particular a .config or gcc version. Perhaps adding a
__add_to_page_cache_locked() prototype would meet avoid it. But I
haven't studied enough on BTF to know if there's a better answer.
