[Changes from V2:
 - no-strict-aliasing is only applied when building with GCC.
 - cpumask_failure.c is excluded, as it doesn't use __imm_insn.]

The __imm_insn macro is defined in bpf_misc.h as:

  #define __imm_insn(name, expr) [name]"i"(*(long *)&(expr))

This may lead to type-punning and strict aliasing rules violations in
it's typical usage where the address of a struct bpf_insn is passed as
expr, like in:

  __imm_insn(st_mem,
             BPF_ST_MEM(BPF_W, BPF_REG_1, offsetof(struct __sk_buff, mark), 42))

Where:

  #define BPF_ST_MEM(SIZE, DST, OFF, IMM)				\
	((struct bpf_insn) {					\
		.code  = BPF_ST | BPF_SIZE(SIZE) | BPF_MEM,	\
		.dst_reg = DST,					\
		.src_reg = 0,					\
		.off   = OFF,					\
		.imm   = IMM })

In all the actual instances of this in the BPF selftests the value is
fed to a volatile asm statement as soon as it gets read from memory,
and thus it is unlikely anti-aliasing rules breakage may lead to
misguided optimizations.

However, GCC detects the potential problem (indirectly) by issuing a
warning stating that a temporary <Uxxxxxx> is used uninitialized,
where the temporary corresponds to the memory read by *(long *).

This patch adds -fno-strict-aliasing to the compilation flags of the
particular selftests that do type punning via __imm_insn, only for
GCC.

Tested in master bpf-next.
No regressions.
