Running program with bpf-to-bpf function calls results in data access
exception (0x300) with the below call trace:
bpf_int_jit_compile+0x238/0x750 (unreliable)
bpf_check+0x2008/0x2710
bpf_prog_load+0xb00/0x13a0
__sys_bpf+0x6f4/0x27c0
sys_bpf+0x2c/0x40
system_call_exception+0x164/0x330
system_call_vectored_common+0xe8/0x278
as bpf_int_jit_compile() tries writing to write protected JIT code
location during the extra pass.
Fix it by holding off write protection of JIT code until the extra
pass, where branch target addresses fixup happens.
Fixes: 62e3d4210a ("powerpc/bpf: Write protect JIT code")

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.
