In mark_chain_precision() logic, when we reach the entry to a global func, it is expected that R1-R5 might be still requested to be marked precise. This would correspond to some integer input arguments being tracked as precise. This is all expected and handled as a special case. What's not expected is that we'll leave backtrack_state structure with some register bits set. This is because for subsequent precision propagations backtrack_state is reused without clearing masks, as all code paths are carefully written in a way to leave empty backtrack_state with zeroed out masks, for speed. The fix is trivial, we always clear register bit in the register mask, and then, optionally, set reg->precise if register is SCALAR_VALUE type.
