Subject: [PATCH RFC v4 net-next 14/26] bpf: verifier (add state prunning optimization)
since verifier walks all possible paths it's important to recognize
equivalent verifier states to speed up verification.
If one of the old states is more strict than the current state, it means
the current state doesn't need to be explored further, since verifier already
concluded that more strict state leads to valid bpf_exit.
