[RFC PATCH bpf-next 0/3] bpf, riscv: Add compressed instructions to rv64 JIT

[Luke Nelson <lukenels@cs.washington.edu>]

This patch series enables using compressed riscv (RVC) instructions
in the rv64 BPF JIT.

RVC is a standard riscv extension that adds a set of compressed,
2-byte instructions that can replace some regular 4-byte instructions
for improved code density.

This series first modifies the JIT to support using 2-byte instructions
(e.g., in jump offset computations), then adds RVC encoding and
helper functions, and finally uses the helper functions to optimize
the rv64 JIT.

I used our formal verification framework, Serval, to verify the
correctness of the RVC encodings and their uses in the rv64 JIT.

The JIT continues to pass all tests in lib/test_bpf.c, and introduces
no new failures to test_verifier; both with and without RVC being enabled.

The following are examples of the JITed code for the verifier selftest
"direct packet read test#3 for CGROUP_SKB OK", without and with RVC
enabled, respectively. The former uses 178 bytes, and the latter uses 112,
for a ~37% reduction in code size for this example.

Without RVC:
