bpf: propagate nullness information for reg to reg comparisons
Propagate nullness information for branches of register to register
equality compare instructions. The following rules are used:
- suppose register A maybe null
- suppose register B is not null
- for JNE A, B, ... - A is not null in the false branch
- for JEQ A, B, ... - A is not null in the true branch
E.g. for program like below:
r6 = skb->sk;
r7 = sk_fullsock(r6);
r0 = sk_fullsock(r6);
if (r0 == 0) return 0; (a)
if (r0 != r7) return 0; (b)
*r7->type; (c)
return 0;
It is safe to dereference r7 at point (c), because of (a) and (b).
