From: Gilad Reti <gilad.r...@gmail.com> commit 744ea4e3885eccb6d332a06fae9eb7420a622c0f upstream.
Add support for pointer to mem register spilling, to allow the verifier to track pointers to valid memory addresses. Such pointers are returned for example by a successful call of the bpf_ringbuf_reserve helper. The patch was partially contributed by CyberArk Software, Inc.
