> SRU Justification:
>
> [ Impact ]
>
> Previously applied patches to the generic kernel are making
> jammy:linux-riscv-6.8 FTBFS because of missing declaration of
> some functions in arch/riscv/net/bpf_jit.h.
>
> Those previous patches were applied in bulk as part of upstream
> stable patchset 2026-01-26.
> See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2139072
>
> The following commit, fixing CVE-2025-40079, from kernel 6.12,
> uses functions that were not yet defined in 6.8:
>  riscv, bpf: Sign extend struct ops return values properly
