I could see this issue when I built an arm64 allmodconfig mainline [1]
kernel, on sha
7e062cda7d90 ("Merge tag 'net-next-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next")

To reproduce what I built tuxmake [2] can be used:
$ tuxmake --runtime podman --target-arch arm64 --toolchain gcc-11 --kconfig http://ix.io/3YBi kernel

This patch patch solved the build error.
