Eduard Zingerman 4814ed6406 bpf: zero extend the result of an arena 32-bit cmpxchg
bpf_convert_ctx_accesses() rewrites an atomic on an arena pointer from
BPF_STX | BPF_ATOMIC to BPF_STX | BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC, and it runs before
bpf_opt_subreg_zext_lo32_rnd_hi32().

That pass emits an explicit zero extension for a 32-bit cmpxchg even
when bpf_jit_needs_zext() is false. This is done because on some
architectures 32-bit cmpxchg requires explicit zero extension for the
dst register. E.g. on x86-64 'lock cmpxchg' does not change the %eax
if comparison is successful, while BPF semantics declare that each
operation on a 32-bit register zero extends it's upper half.

is_cmpxchg_insn() matches BPF_MODE == BPF_ATOMIC only, so an arena
cmpxchg misses said zero extension adjustment. This patch adjusts
is_cmpxchg_insn() to match BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC alongside BPF_ATOMIC.

Fixes: d503a04f8b ("bpf: Add support for certain atomics in bpf_arena to x86 JIT")
