====================
Emil Tsalapatis from Meta reported such a case where 'may_goto 0' insn is
generated by clang-19 compiler and this caused verification failure
since 'may_goto 0' is rejected by verifier.
In fact, 'may_goto 0' insn is actually a no-op and it won't hurt
verification. The only side effect is that the verifier will convert
the insn to a sequence of codes like
/* r10 - 8 stores the implicit loop count */
r11 = *(u64 *)(r10 -8)
if r11 == 0x0 goto pc+2
r11 -= 1
*(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r11
With this patch set 'may_goto 0' insns are allowed in verification which
also removes those insns.
Changelogs:
v1 -> v2:
- Instead of a separate function, removing 'may_goto 0' in existing
func opt_remove_nops().
