The arm64 JIT has the same issue as ppc64 JIT in that the relative BPF to BPF call offset can be too far away from core kernel in that relative encoding into imm is not sufficient and could potentially be truncated, see alsofd045f6cd9("arm64: add support for module PLTs") which adds spill-over space for module_alloc() and therefore bpf_jit_binary_alloc(). Therefore, use the recently added bpf_jit_get_func_addr() helper for properly fetching the address through prog->aux->func[off]->bpf_func instead. This also has the benefit to optimize normal helper calls since their address can use the optimized emission. Tested on Cavium ThunderX CN8890.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
