When reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, it can not be null. However the verifier explores the branches under rX == 0 in check_cond_jmp_op() even if reg->type is CONST_PTR_TO_MAP, because it was not checked for in reg_not_null(). Fix this by adding CONST_PTR_TO_MAP to the set of types that are considered non nullable in reg_not_null(). An old "unpriv: cmp map pointer with zero" selftest fails with this change, because now early out correctly triggers in check_cond_jmp_op(), making the verification to pass. In practice verifier may allow pointer to null comparison in unpriv, since in many cases the relevant branch and comparison op are removed as dead code. So change the expected test result to __success_unpriv.

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.
