Daniel Borkmann e5f635edd3 bpf: Fix precedence bug in convert_bpf_ld_abs alignment check
Fix an operator precedence issue in convert_bpf_ld_abs() where the
expression offset + ip_align % size evaluates as offset + (ip_align % size)
due to % having higher precedence than +. That latter evaluation does
not make any sense. The intended check is (offset + ip_align) % size == 0
to verify that the packet load offset is properly aligned for direct
access.

With NET_IP_ALIGN == 2, the bug causes the inline fast-path for direct
packet loads to almost never be taken on !CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
platforms. This forces nearly all cBPF BPF_LD_ABS packet loads through
the bpf_skb_load_helper slow path on the affected archs.
