I'm confused by the need for this check (and, IIRC, some other bpf code that does kernel copies that can fault - and return an error). I though that the entire point of bpf was that is sanitised and verified everything to limit what the 'program' could do in order to stop it overwriting (or even reading) kernel structures that is wasn't supposed to access. So it just shouldn't have a address that might be (in any way) invalid. The only possible address verify is access_ok() to ensure that a uses address really is a user address.
