Yeah, Paul told me this right after I submitted the patch.

I really don't have such a strong need in BPF_MOD, but let me tell why
I wanted to use it in the first place.
I've used this operation to speedup processing linear blacklist
filters. Namely, if you have a list of syscall numbers to blacklist,
you can do, say,
ldw [0]
mod #4
jeq #1, case1
jeq #1, case2
jeq #1, case3
case0:
...
and in every case to walk only a corresponding factor-list. In my case
I had a list of ~40 syscall numbers and after this change filter
executed in 17.25 instructions on average per syscall vs. 45
instructions for the linear filter (so this removes about 30
instructions penalty per every syscall). To replace "mod #4" I
actually used "and #3", but this obviously doesn't work for
non-power-of-two divisors. If I would use "mod 5", then it would give
me about 15.5 instructions on average.
