bpf: improve verifier branch analysis
pathological bpf programs may try to force verifier to explode in
the number of branch states:
20: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x24000028 goto pc+0
21: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe1fa20 goto pc+2
22: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x7e goto pc+0
23: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe880e000 goto pc+0
24: (c5) if r0 s< 0x2100ecf4 goto pc+0
25: (d5) if r1 s<= 0xe880e000 goto pc+1
26: (c5) if r0 s< 0xf4041810 goto pc+0
27: (d5) if r1 s<= 0x1e007e goto pc+0
28: (b5) if r0 <= 0xe86be000 goto pc+0
29: (07) r0 += 16614
30: (c5) if r0 s< 0x6d0020da goto pc+0
31: (35) if r0 >= 0x2100ecf4 goto pc+0
Teach verifier to recognize always taken and always not taken branches.
This analysis is already done for == and != comparison.
Expand it to all other branches.
It also helps real bpf programs to be verified faster:
