Thanks the hint that it should be the jitted arguments solved it… And 
you quick example worked, just in case some one else is playing with it, 
here is my working example:

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
#include <linux/bpf.h>
#include "bpf_helpers.h"
#include "bpf_trace_helpers.h"

#define bpf_debug(fmt, ...)                \
{                                          \
     char __fmt[] = fmt;                    \
     bpf_trace_printk(__fmt, sizeof(__fmt), \
                      ##__VA_ARGS__);       \
}

struct net_device {
     /* Structure does not need to contain all entries,
      * as "preserve_access_index" will use BTF to fix this... */
     int                    ifindex;
} __attribute__((preserve_access_index));

struct xdp_rxq_info {
     /* Structure does not need to contain all entries,
      * as "preserve_access_index" will use BTF to fix this... */
     struct net_device *dev;
     __u32 queue_index;
} __attribute__((preserve_access_index));

struct xdp_buff {
     void *data;
     void *data_end;
     void *data_meta;
     void *data_hard_start;
     unsigned long handle;
     struct xdp_rxq_info *rxq;
} __attribute__((preserve_access_index));


BPF_TRACE_1("fentry/xdp_prog_simple", trace_on_entry,
             struct xdp_buff *, xdp)
{
     bpf_debug("fentry: [ifindex = %u, queue =  %u]\n",
               xdp->rxq->dev->ifindex, xdp->rxq->queue_index);
     return 0;
}


BPF_TRACE_2("fexit/xdp_prog_simple", trace_on_exit,
             struct xdp_buff*, xdp, int, ret)
{
     bpf_debug("fexit: [ifindex = %u, queue =  %u, ret = %d]\n",
               xdp->rxq->dev->ifindex, xdp->rxq->queue_index, ret);

     return 0;
}
