bpf, verifier: Remove redundant var_off.value ops in scalar known reg cases
In BPF_AND and BPF_OR alu cases we have this pattern when the src and dst
tnum is a constant.
1 dst_reg->var_off = tnum_[op](dst_reg->var_off, src_reg.var_off)
2 scalar32_min_max_[op]
3 if (known) return
4 scalar_min_max_[op]
5 if (known)
6 __mark_reg_known(dst_reg,
dst_reg->var_off.value [op] src_reg.var_off.value)
The result is in 1 we calculate the var_off value and store it in the
dst_reg. Then in 6 we duplicate this logic doing the op again on the
value.
The duplication comes from the the tnum_[op] handlers because they have
already done the value calcuation. For example this is tnum_and().
struct tnum tnum_and(struct tnum a, struct tnum b)
{
u64 alpha, beta, v;
alpha = a.value | a.mask;
beta = b.value | b.mask;
v = a.value & b.value;
return TNUM(v, alpha & beta & ~v);
}
So lets remove the redundant op calculation. Its confusing for readers
and unnecessary. Its also not harmful because those ops have the
property, r1 & r1 = r1 and r1 | r1 = r1.
