[ Upstream commit 5534e58f2e9bd72b253d033ee0af6e68eb8ac96b ]
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.
