I'm not sure if it is my toolchain but when I try to build a version
with CONFIG_RSEQ_SLICE_EXTENSION disabled, I see:

    ld: vmlinux.o: in function `x64_sys_call':
    arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.h:471: undefined reference to `__x64_sys_rseq_slice_yield'
    ld: vmlinux.o: in function `ia32_sys_call':
    arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_32.h:471: undefined reference to `__ia32_sys_rseq_slice_yield'
    ld: vmlinux.o:(.rodata+0x12d0): undefined reference to `__x64_sys_rseq_slice_yield'

I would have assumed the COND_SYSCALL() above would have stubbed this
but that doesn't seem to be the case. Am I missing something?
P.S. I'm running with:

    gcc version 11.4.0 (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04.2)
    GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.38
