mainlining shenanigans
c648c9c742
This patch adds an optimization that uses the asr immediate instruction
for BPF_ALU BPF_ARSH BPF_K, rather than loading the immediate to
a temporary register. This is similar to existing code for handling
BPF_ALU BPF_{LSH,RSH} BPF_K. This optimization saves two instructions
and is more consistent with LSH and RSH.
Example of the code generated for BPF_ALU32_IMM(BPF_ARSH, BPF_REG_0, 5)
before the optimization:
2c: mov r8, #5
30: mov r9, #0
34: asr r0, r0, r8
and after optimization:
2c: asr r0, r0, #5
Tested on QEMU using lib/test_bpf and test_verifier.

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.
