Andrii Nakryiko 618945fbed bpf: remove unnecessary prune and jump points
Don't mark some instructions as jump points when there are actually no
jumps and instructions are just processed sequentially. Such case is
handled naturally by precision backtracking logic without the need to
update jump history. See get_prev_insn_idx(). It goes back linearly by
one instruction, unless current top of jmp_history is pointing to
current instruction. In such case we use `st->jmp_history[cnt - 1].prev_idx`
to find instruction from which we jumped to the current instruction
non-linearly.

Also remove both jump and prune point marking for instruction right
after unconditional jumps, as program flow can get to the instruction
right after unconditional jump instruction only if there is a jump to
that instruction from somewhere else in the program. In such case we'll
mark such instruction as prune/jump point because it's a destination of
a jump.

This change has no changes in terms of number of instructions or states
processes across Cilium and selftests programs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
