Commit9edd04c418("docs: Raise minimum pahole version to 1.26 for KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS kfuncs") raised the minimum required pahole version from 1.22 to 1.26 in the requirements table and added a paragraph explaining the failure mode for distributions still shipping pahole v1.25 (e.g. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS). The next day, commitece7e57afd("docs: changes.rst and ver_linux: sort the lists") came through a different tree (docs vs sched_ext) and re-flowed the table alphabetically, but its base did not include9edd04c418. When the two commits met in mainline, the textual rewrite of the table won and the version bump was lost. The added "Since Linux 7.0..." paragraph also disappeared. The result is that changes.rst on master (v7.1-rc5) lists pahole 1.22 again, even though sched_ext kfuncs annotated with KF_IMPLICIT_ARGS genuinely require v1.26 to produce a correct vmlinux BTF. Users on distributions with pahole v1.25 hit "func_proto incompatible with vmlinux" when loading any sched_ext BPF program (scx_simple, scx_qmap, ...) and have no documentation pointing them at the version gap. Restore both changes from9edd04c418.
