When you run "make bzImage" followed by "make modules", the kernel is always built with HAVE_JUMP_LABEL disabled, while the modules are built depending on CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL. If HAVE_JUMP_LABEL macro happens to be different, modules are built with undefined references: ERROR: "static_key_slow_inc" [net/netfilter/xt_TEE.ko] undefined! ERROR: "static_key_slow_dec" [net/netfilter/xt_TEE.ko] undefined! ERROR: "static_key_slow_dec" [net/netfilter/nft_meta.ko] undefined!
