good catch. classic->extended converter is just being untidy.
It shouldn't be populating unused 'src_reg' field when BPF_SRC == BPF_K
verifier is doing the right thing. It's rejecting instructions that
have junk in unused fields to make sure that someday we can extend it
with something useful.
The fix should be something like this:
diff --git a/net/core/filter.c b/net/core/filter.c
index 13079f03902e..05a04ea87172 100644
