check_xadd() can cause check_ptr_to_btf_access() to be executed with
atype==BPF_READ and value_regno==-1 (meaning "just check whether the access
is okay, don't tell me what type it will result in").
Handle that case properly and skip writing type information, instead of
indexing into the registers at index -1 and writing into out-of-bounds
memory.
Note that at least at the moment, you can't actually write through a BTF
pointer, so check_xadd() will reject the program after calling
check_ptr_to_btf_access with atype==BPF_WRITE; but that's after the
verifier has already corrupted memory.
This patch assumes that BTF pointers are not available in unprivileged
programs.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
