Commit acabad9ff6bf ("[InstCombine] try to canonicalize icmp with
trunc op into mask and cmp") added a transformation to
convert "(conv)a < power_2_const" to "a & <const>" in certain
cases and bpf kernel verifier has to handle the resulted code
conservatively and this may reject otherwise legitimate program.
This commit tries to prevent such a transformation. A bpf backend
builtin llvm.bpf.compare is added. The ICMP insn, which is subject to
above InstCombine transformation, is converted to the builtin
function. The builtin function is later lowered to original ICMP insn,
certainly after InstCombine pass.
With this change, all affected bpf strobemeta* selftests are
passed now.

This is a minor pattern-match update to BPFAdjustOpt.cpp to accept
not only 'or i1 a, b' but also 'select i1 a, i1 true, i1 b'.
This resolves regression after SimplifyCFG's creating select form
of and/or instead (https://reviews.llvm.org/D95026).
This is a small change, and currently such select form isn't created
or doesn't reach to the late pipeline (because InstCombine eagerly
folds it into and/or i1), so I chose to commit without a review process.
Add an IR phase right before main module optimization.
This is to modify IR to restrict certain downward optimizations
in order to generate verifier friendly code.

in-block/cross-block instcombines.

condition is also used in the later blocks.
Internally, a bpf IR builtin
result = __builtin_bpf_passthrough(seq_num, result)
is used to enforce ordering. This builtin is only used
during target independent IR optimizations and it will
be removed at the beginning of target dependent IR
optimizations.
For example, removing the following workaround,
--- a/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/test_sysctl_loop1.c
+++ b/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/progs/test_sysctl_loop1.c

+ int ret;
this patch is able to generate code which passed the verifier.
To disable optimization, users need to use "opt" command like below:
clang -target bpf -O2 -S -emit-llvm -Xclang -disable-llvm-passes test.c
// disable icmp serialization
opt -O2 -bpf-disable-serialize-icmp test.ll | llvm-dis > t.ll
// disable avoid-speculation
opt -O2 -bpf-disable-avoid-speculation test.ll | llvm-dis > t.ll
llc t.ll
