I tested this change and it seem to work as intended. Was worried a
bit that there are three places in this function where such checks are
applied:
1. upon entry for BPF_X case (this one): checks if dst_reg/src_reg are
   pointers to packet or packet end or packet meta;
2. when attempting to predict branch: prediction would be triggered
   only when dst/src is packet/packet_end (or vice-versa);
3. when prediction failed and both branches have to be visited
   (`try_match_pkt_pointers`): dst/src have to be packet/packet_end or
   meta/packet-start (or vice versa).
   
Check (1) is more permissive than (2) or (3) but either (2) or (3)
would be applied before exit, so there is no contradiction.
