Daniel Borkmann f438ba7a4c bpf: Treat a fault prone PTR_TO_MEM as a pointer type mismatch
reg_type_mismatch_ok() enumerates the pointer types which must not
silently share a BPF_LDX with a different one, since the type recorded
for the insn drives a rewrite in bpf_convert_ctx_accesses().

f2362a57ae ("bpf: allow void* cast using bpf_rdonly_cast()") added
PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY | PTR_UNTRUSTED as another type in need of one,
namely the BPF_PROBE_MEM rewrite, but did not add it there. Fix it by
adding the missing case to reg_type_mismatch_ok(), so that a PTR_TO_MEM
which may fault on deref is not mismatch ok anymore. The triage in
save_aux_ptr_type() then merges them.
