[PATCH bpf-next] bpf: Propagate memory bounds to registers in atomics w/ BPF_FETCH

[Brendan Jackman <jackmanb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When BPF_FETCH is set, atomic instructions load a value from memory
into a register. The current verifier code first checks via
check_mem_access whether we can access the memory, and then checks
via check_reg_arg whether we can write into the register.

For loads, check_reg_arg has the side-effect of marking the
register's value as unkonwn, and check_mem_access has the side effect
of propagating bounds from memory to the register.

Therefore with the current order, bounds information is thrown away,
but by simply reversing the order of check_reg_arg
vs. check_mem_access, we can instead propagate bounds smartly.

A simple test is added with an infinite loop that can only be proved
unreachable if this propagation is present.

Note that in the test, the memory value has to be written with two
instructions:

		BPF_MOV64_IMM(BPF_REG_0, 0),
		BPF_STX_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_10, BPF_REG_0, -8),

instead of one:

		BPF_ST_MEM(BPF_DW, BPF_REG_10, -8, 0),

Because BPF_ST_MEM doesn't seem to set the stack slot type to 0 when
storing an immediate.
