This label is added by dynptr_slice(_rdwr)
if (meta.func_id == special_kfunc_list[KF_bpf_dynptr_slice] ||
meta.func_id == special_kfunc_list[KF_bpf_dynptr_slice_rdwr]) {
enum bpf_type_flag type_flag =
get_dynptr_type_flag(meta.initialized_dynptr.type);
...
regs[BPF_REG_0].type = PTR_TO_MEM | type_flag;
That extra flag was causing the type to be unexpected later on.
I'll add a selftest for this as well.
