bpf, arm64: Optimize AND,OR,XOR,JSET BPF_K using arm64 logical immediates
The current code for BPF_{AND,OR,XOR,JSET} BPF_K loads the immediate to
a temporary register before use.
This patch changes the code to avoid using a temporary register
when the BPF immediate is encodable using an arm64 logical immediate
instruction. If the encoding fails (due to the immediate not being
encodable), it falls back to using a temporary register.
Example of generated code for BPF_ALU32_IMM(BPF_AND, R0, 0x80000001):
without optimization:
24: mov w10, #0x8000ffff
28: movk w10, #0x1
2c: and w7, w7, w10
with optimization:
24: and w7, w7, #0x80000001
Since the encoding process is quite complex, the JIT reuses existing
functionality in arch/arm64/kernel/insn.c for encoding logical immediates
rather than duplicate it in the JIT.
