Eduard Zingerman 0fb3cf6110 bpf: use register liveness information for func_states_equal
Liveness analysis DFA computes a set of registers live before each
instruction. Leverage this information to skip comparison of dead
registers in func_states_equal(). This helps with convergance of
iterator processing loops, as bpf_reg_state->live marks can't be used
when loops are processed.

This has certain performance impact for selftests, here is a veristat
listing using `-f "insns_pct>5" -f "!insns<200"`

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 reStructuredText 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.
