Apart from a few nits, I think this patch looks good.

Is this state ever used?
mark_stack_slot_irq_flag() is always called with either NATIVE or LOCK.

Nit: having '&& cur->active_locks' in this branch but not the one for
'is_res_lock' is a bit confusing. As far as I understand this is
just an optimization, and active_locks check could be done (or dropped)
in both cases.

Nit: there is no branch for find_lock_state(... REF_TYPE_RES_LOCK_IRQ ...),
this is not a problem, as other checks catch the imbalance in
number of unlocks or unlock of the same lock, but verifier won't
report the above "AA deadlock" message for bpf_res_spin_lock_irqsave().
The above two checks make it legal to take resilient lock while
holding regular lock and vice versa. This is probably ok, can't figure
out an example when this causes trouble.
