Bryce reported that he saw the following with:
0: r6 = r1
1: r1 = 12
2: r0 = *(u16 *)skb[r1]
The xlated sequence was incorrectly clobbering r2 with pointer
value of r6 ...
0: (bf) r6 = r1
1: (b7) r1 = 12
2: (bf) r1 = r6
3: (bf) r2 = r1
4: (85) call bpf_skb_load_helper_16_no_cache#7692160
... and hence call to the load helper never succeeded given the
offset was too high. Fix it by reordering the load of r6 to r1.
Other than that the insn has similar calling convention than BPF
helpers, that is, r0 - r5 are scratch regs, so nothing else
affected after the insn.
