Hmph, unfortunate. What should I have run to catch this in the first place?
This doesn't trigger a single warning for me:

$ cd tools/bpf && make runqslower

I'm guessing this is just packaging the tool and the breakage only happens
when the actual bpf syscall happens?

Providing this didn't miss any new user of the sched_switch TP (I didn't
find any with rg '\bregister_[A-z,0-9,-,_]+sched_switch'), I'm okay with it
(well, I think this falls into breaking change category, so I don't have
much choice do I :-))
