--- Comment #1 from David Faust <david.faust at oracle dot com> ---
Looks like this is an issue with passing void* where an enum type is
expected in a function call. This is not specific to the BPF backend.

Not entirely clear to me whether this is expected or a bug, but it
does differ from llvm behavior.

Reproducer below, tried with a few gccs, same behavior:
