    LoongArch, bpf: Fix jit to skip speculation barrier opcode
    
    [ Upstream commit a6f6a95f25803500079513780d11a911ce551d76 ]
    
    Just skip the opcode(BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC) in the BPF JIT instead of
    failing to JIT the entire program, given LoongArch currently has no
    couterpart of a speculation barrier instruction. To verify the issue,
    use the ltp testcase as shown below.
    
    Also, Wang says:
    
      I can confirm there's currently no speculation barrier equivalent
      on LonogArch. (Loongson says there are builtin mitigations for
      Spectre-V1 and V2 on their chips, and AFAIK efforts to port the
      exploits to mips/LoongArch have all failed a few years ago.)
