I'd have one potential bug suspicion, for the 4.18 one you were trying,
could you run with the below patch to see whether it would help?
I think this is almost certainly the problem - looking at the history,
it seems that the "-4" was assumed to be part of the scratch stuff in
commit 38ca93060163 ("bpf, arm32: save 4 bytes of unneeded stack space")
but it isn't - it's because "off" of zero refers to the top word in the
stack (iow at STACK_SIZE-4).
