Commit 011832b97b ("bpf: Introduce may_goto instruction") added support
for may_goto insn. The 'may_goto 0' insn is disallowed since the insn is
equivalent to a nop as both branch will go to the next insn.
But it is possible that compiler transformation may generate 'may_goto 0'
insn. Emil Tsalapatis from Meta reported such a case which caused
verification failure. For example, for the following code,
int i, tmp[3];
for (i = 0; i < 3 && can_loop; i++)
tmp[i] = 0;
...
clang 20 may generate code like
may_goto 2;
may_goto 1;
may_goto 0;
r1 = 0; /* tmp[0] = 0; */
r2 = 0; /* tmp[1] = 0; */
r3 = 0; /* tmp[2] = 0; */
Let us permit 'may_goto 0' insn to avoid verification failure for codes
like the above.

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.
