bpf: Track contents of read-only maps as scalars
commit
46a1145a9048828b781c3805a0af51554e636462 upstream.
Maps that are read-only both from BPF program side and user space side
have their contents constant, so verifier can track referenced values
precisely and use that knowledge for dead code elimination, branch
pruning, etc. This patch teaches BPF verifier how to do this.
