Apologies - I jumped to conclusions in my original bug report

After applying your patch and seeing it did not fix the issue, I did a bit
of investigation myself.
It turns out the problem wasn't in the linked commit, but actually part of
the upstream kernel:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?h=v5.11&id=596b0474d3d9b1242eab713f84d8873f9887d980

The real problem isn't in the code however, but in my Makefile.
I didn't run the "modules_prepare" target before trying to build a module,
despite it being documented:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt

Adding that target to my Makefile resolved the issue, without any changes
to the linux-source package.
So this bug is now invalid
