      ====================
      
      The verifier currently does not save the reg state when
      spilling <8byte bounded scalar to the stack.  The bpf program
      will be incorrectly rejected when this scalar is refilled to
      the reg and then used to offset into a packet header.
      The later patch has a simplified bpf prog from a real use case
      to demonstrate this case.  The current work around is
      to reparse the packet again such that this offset scalar
      is close to where the packet data will be accessed to
      avoid the spill.  Thus, the header is parsed twice.
      
      The llvm patch [1] will align the <8bytes spill to
      the 8-byte stack address.  This set is to make the necessary
      changes in verifier to support <8byte scalar spill and refill.

      v2:
      - Changed the xdpwall selftest in patch 3 to trigger a u32
        spill at a non 8-byte aligned stack address.  The v1 has
        simplified the real example too much such that it only
        triggers a u32 spill but does not spill at a non
        8-byte aligned stack address.
      - Changed README.rst in patch 3 to explain the llvm dependency
        for the xdpwall test.
