Marek reported that he saw an issue with the below snippet in that
timing measurements where off when loaded as unpriv while results
were reasonable when loaded as privileged:

    [...]
    uint64_t a = bpf_ktime_get_ns();
    uint64_t b = bpf_ktime_get_ns();
    uint64_t delta = b - a;
    if ((int64_t)delta > 0) {
    [...]

Turns out there is a bug where a corner case is missing in the fix
d3bd7413 ("bpf: fix sanitation of alu op with pointer / scalar
type from different paths"), namely fixup_bpf_calls() only checks
whether aux has a non-zero alu_state, but it also needs to test for
the case of BPF_ALU_NON_POINTER since in both occasions we need to
skip the masking rewrite (as there is nothing to mask).
