Commit 3f50f132d840 ("bpf: Verifier, do explicit ALU32 bounds tracking")
added 32bit register states to verifier for explicit ALU32 bounds
tracking. When assigning 32bit register states to 64bit register states,
if 32bit register is a constant value of 0, the 64bit register smax_val
will get U32_MAX(0xffffFFFF). Such an inprecise information may impact
downward verification. Patch #1 has detailed explanation of the program
and how to fix it. Patch #2 provides a verifier test to cover the change.
