In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: BPF: Refactor jump offset calculation in tail call
The old macro-based jmp_offset calculation derives the jump distance
from a stale prior-pass code stride, which can lead to wrong branch
offsets and soft lockups under extra JIT passes.
Fix this by calculating the offset directly on the absolute target:
"ctx->offset[insn + 1] - ctx->idx".
To avoid a false 16-bit range check abort during size estimation, add
a "ctx->image == NULL" guard to inject a safe dummy offset.
