When check_stack_read_fixed_off() reads value from an spi
all stack slots of which are set to STACK_{MISC,INVALID},
the destination register is set to unbound SCALAR_VALUE.
Exploit this fact by allowing stacksafe() to use a fake
unbound scalar register to compare 'mmmm mmmm' stack value
in old state vs spilled 64-bit scalar in current state
and vice versa.
Veristat results after this patch show some gains:
./veristat -C -e file,prog,states -f 'states_pct>10' not-opt after

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 Restructured Text 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.
