recent kernel config changes break BPF app #4

Description

Hi, ever since MuQSS died I've been looking for a replacement CPU scheduler. After testing many, I've settled on TT, which works great for me, thanks for that!. So my Arch Linux box installs the linux-cachyos-tt package from here for a while and all's fine once again. Or not :-)...

Version 5.15.11-2 though broke an app I've been testing, called picosnitch. After communicating with the dev it turned out that the cachyos kernels config changed recently and CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS=y got removed.

I admit not being very familiar with the complex set of configuration options of the Linux kernel, but I wonder what's the rationale behind these latest changes, especially to the BPF stuff. There are other changes in the 5.15.11 cachyos kernels config related to BPF, and a quick comparison to the Arch Linux configs shows no such changes, not in the linux nor in the linux-hardened package.

Is there any room for reversing these BPF-related changes or do I have to drop using/co-working on picosnitch alltogether on the cachyos kernels?
