Right, in hindsight that could've worked better, but for netdev/bpf
patches posting fixes and features in one series is a no-no :)

I guess the best way forward would be for Jiong to post the dependent
set (BPF_ALU | BPF_ARSH support) as an RFC and then decide.  The
conflict will be trivial, yet avoidable if we wait for this to
propagate to bpf-next.
