selftests/bpf: Check that JMP32 pointer vs zero jumps are not predictedgrafted
Add jmp32_ptr_vs_zero_jne: the fall-through of the 32-bit compare, which
the verifier used to skip, contains an out of bounds map value access,
hence w/o the previous patch the program is accepted. See previous patch
for detailed description.
