Oh, no. I don't think this is a very difficult problem, because the
old version has already solved [1]. Please improve your code and send
V4.
BTW, I have committed V3 with some small modifications in
https://github.com/loongson/linux/commits/loongarch-next, please make
V4 based on that.

Hi Huacai,
This change is to pass the special test cases:
"a new type of jump test where the program jumps forwards
and backwards with increasing offset. It mainly tests JITs where a
relative jump may generate different JITed code depending on the offset
size."
They are introduced in commit a7d2e752e520 ("bpf/tests: Add staggered
JMP and JMP32 tests") after the old internal version you mentioned.
Here, we use the native instructions to enlarge the jump range to 26 bit
directly rather than 16 bit first, and also take no account of more than
26 bit case because there is no native instruction and it needs to emulate.
As the code comment said, this is to enhance code readability now.
Thanks,
Tiezhu
