[ Upstream commit d7af7e497f0308bc97809cc48b58e8e0f13887e1 ]

Fix a verifier bug found by smatch static checker in [0].

This problem has never been seen in prod to my best knowledge. Fixing it
still seems to be a good idea since it's hard to say for sure whether
it's possible or not to have a scenario where a combination of
convert_ctx_access() and a narrow load would lead to an out of bound
write.

When narrow load is handled, one or two new instructions are added to
insn_buf array, but before it was only checked that

cnt >= ARRAY_SIZE(insn_buf)

And it's safe to add a new instruction to insn_buf[cnt++] only once. The
second try will lead to out of bound write. And this is what can happen
if `shift` is set.

Fix it by making sure that if the BPF_RSH instruction has to be added in
addition to BPF_AND then there is enough space for two more instructions
in insn_buf.

The full report [0] is below:
